As if things weren't tough enough in Louisiana with a history of corruption, an education system that ranks at the bottom in the nation, and politicians that claim to be for the poor but instead fill their own pockets, we now have what is perhaps American history's worst governor. It's been four months since hurricane Katrina and Kathleen "Blab and No Direction" Blanco still doesn't have a clue which direction we ought to go since the recovery effort began.

Is there any reason that any of us should still be discussing Hurricane Katrina in the manner that we continue to do? There is a reasonable discussion on what we should be doing. How to woo people back home, maybe. Tax incentives for businesses affected by Katrina? Maybe. Discussion on the levee system? Definitely.

Yet, what continues to fill our headlines are some of the most ridiculous stories that should have been solved and our Governor can't even figure out how to solve them.

It's bad enough that our Governor can move black people like herds of cattle on election day but expects other people to come in and save the day while so many people are stranded on an island. We've heard the story about FEMA's promise to send buses, but the question still remains, why did she sit on her hands and wait for FEMA during an emergency situation? The entire time that she was waiting on FEMA's buses, she could have been organizing and moving buses on her own. Maybe she smoked too much pot in her youth and was waiting for some magic buses to just appear? Certain FEMA had to take some time to get buses down here, why couldn't she start using some local buses? Baton Rouge wasn't evacuated, there were buses drivers in Baton Rouge.

We can go into the details of what she did do, what she didn't do, and blab about that for another four months but what's the point? In fact, her mistakes are forgivable and could have been put well behind her and we would be moving forward. But Governor "Blab and No Hope" is still stuck on her excuses and the longer she takes, the less likely New Orleans will be rebuilt.

Let's not forget the emails that the "Blab and No John Wayne" administration sent to each other concerning appearance. As the Seattle Times Editorial points out:

For the record, people were dying as these e-mails were being sent. In that context, they are nothing less than vulgar.

Read the article

She goes in front of Congress asking for money, complaining how the state is hurting financially because of the Hurricances, yet she can find over half a million dollars for renovations? Even while she's telling the state about "deep budget cuts" and "20% lay-offs"? What makes this worse is that our state went to Washington and asked for an unGodly amount of cash on top of what was already sent to us.

That in itself was embarrassing enough to many of us in the state, but when harder hit Mississippi asks for a mere portion of the amount our state asked for, renovations to the state house isn't in order. If the "Blab and No Brains" administration had any intelligence whatsoever, they would have exercised a clause to back out of the contract. Exactly who benefits from these renovations? Hurricane Katrina victims? The poor? The sick? The teachers? Nope, her staff does. Typical Democrat, full of talk of compassion but all about self serving interests.

In this interview with KATC, the Governor blames gender bias for her ineptness and not her whining and crying that continues to haunt her in the aftermath of Katrina. KATC shows footage of "Blab and No More Crying" pounding her fist on the table top, but fails to show footage of her telling congress that she "was overwhelmed, but that wasn't anything to be embarrassed about". Well "Blab and No Shame", it's nothing to be proud of either.

People died under this lady's watch, due in large part to her failure and she tells congress that being overwhelmed is nothing to be ashamed of? Are you kidding me? Did she expect to receive a trophy for being overwhelmed? Maybe a visit to the Wizard of Oz in hopes he'll give her courage?

That same video also has "Blab And No Testosterone" crying about gender bias. Yeah, That mean male Hurricane Katrina picked on Louisiana because he knew we had a female Governor. This has got to be a joke, the reason she's being picked on isn't because of her failures, her excuses, her inaction, not even her indecision. The reason she can't get things done is because she's not a man. If that is true, then why should any of us ever vote for a woman again? For any office? After all, their gender is only going to hinder them, right? No, I don't believe that, then again, I'm not blaming her incompetence on her gender either.

To make matters worse, we all "know" how bad it is in Iraq, yet Bush can manage to get elections up and running? "Blab and No Vote" can't even get the elections in New Orleans going on time. What is she afraid of, why can't this lady make one simple decision? If this keeps up, I'm going to need a name change.

Actually, "Blab and No Re-election" has made one decision, to run for Governor again. As a Republican, I'm excited to see her make that decision. It's a beautiful thing to line up candidates against her. As a citizen of this state, it scares me to death, that means we'll see two more hurricane seasons with this governor, unless she's impeached. As a citizen in the State of Louisiana, please Governor "Blab and No Rescue".... resign.

As for the rest of you, call her what you want, just please.... don't call her our Governor anymore.
