Burning shame?

What does the BBC know about how we feel? I don't feel shame, anger or anything about this. The rest of the country is still going to work and making money and such. The REAL idiot in the entire picture is the Governor of Louisiana, Kathleen Blanco, whose incompetence in not preparing for the disaster is costing lives. Of course, she IS a Democrat and she IS a woman...so she is apparently immune from criticism. It's far easier to blame the entire thing on a white man.

Things will work out, eventually.
