Senator Mary Landrieu Delivers Democratic Radio Address
Edited on Sat Aug-26-06 12:19 PM by cal04
Louisiana Senator Mary Landrieu delivers the Democratic Radio Address this week, calling for a new spirit of hope and recovery in the Gulf Coast. Though so much time has passed, too much still remains undone in rebuilding the battered region. One year after Katrina and Rita shattered Americans' illusions that their government was prepared to handle such a catastrophe, it is time for a new direction-to make good finally on the promises of full recovery and rebuilding made in the wake of the hurricanes.

(snip)
A year after the most powerful hurricanes in history hit America's shores, the rebuilding process is only just beginning in many communities. And as long as tens of thousands of families can't return home the work of recovery remains incomplete.

Countless neighborhoods appear as if the hurricanes were just yesterday, and they serve as harsh reminders of how our nation was so unprepared.

Unfortunately, our nation in many ways remains unprepared for major disasters, whether they be hurricanes, earthquakes, or terrorist attacks.

I believe is the quote; woefully, I don't know the author, but the sentiment is true.

Ms. Landrieu. There will be no HOPE, no RECOVERY until Bush and those like him are purged from the government.
