Please take the sock out of your mouth Jesse,or we won't be able to hear what you have to say. The media again struck gold when it reported some passing remarks by Jesse Jackson on the use of the term refugee and it's racial implications. The questions he was truely raising was why? The government had Katrina tracked as she swept through the Caribbean and swept accross the gulf of Mexico to it's destination with one of the most historic and beautiful cities in this country.The officials knew within 72 hours where and how hard Katrina was going to hit. They also knew that thousands of people will flock to a desigated spot as a last resort.These people had no other way out of the city,they were poor and most of them were black.How could it be that no one thought to stock this spot with water,food, a red cross station,port a potties,an organized plan, NOTHING.Could it have beenthat these people didn't matter?
