No, no "shades of grey". The world really is in black and white, good and bad, right and wrong.
It's when some folks need to analyze minute details, and formulate/theorize scenarios of how that detail came to be, is when you get the grey
areas....which really wasn't there in the first place.
Example: A plane hits a building, causing a tremendous fire and a level of damage that the building was never conceived of ever having to experience,
so wasn't designed for.
That's the black and white. The plane hit, the building burned...and fell due to damage beyond design.
International terrorists claim to have masterminded the plot to destroy the building by flying a plane into it.
That's the black and white. Osama and his little buddies did it
The nation of good, is now embroiled in a war against the bad...more black and white. We are at war against terrorists that would, and do, kill
innocent women, children, old people, and others.
End of it. We know who did it. We know why (even if we cannot comprehend it), and we know we must stop them before they do it again.....black and
white.
The grey area, is when people like Mike take the plane crash, and decide to elaborate theories of government conspiricy, secret bombings, holographic
images, televised images of CG planes somehow inserted into every news networks independant electronic stream, and of course, "the Jews did it". We
all watched it live, we all know what we saw, we all heard the on-the-spot commentary of reporters, Policemen, Firefighters, and bystanders. The
structural engineers who built the towers, tell us the flooring structure was not ever designed to support that level of damage or heat. So when the
floors gave way, the buildings fell...just like we all watched, in horror, and live. To tell ME that what I saw (or anyone actually seeing it for real
in New York) was faked, is completley stupid.
The facts are the facts and they are black and white. Any elaboration or distortion of the facts is nothing more than lies.
All of the above also relates with the storm damage in the south. GW did exactly what he is supposed to do in America...he let the City of NO, and the
state of Louisiana take care of their people (it's that Federal/state, US Constitution stuff). Geez, he even warned them 3 days before to get the
people out of there, and even declared a state of emergency 2 days before the storm hit! Yet the Mayor and Governor FAILED to respond to the
emergency, and far too many died because of it. GW withheld money for the US Army Corps of Engineers levee project? Nooooooo. The current
administration has given MORE USACOE money to Louisiana than any other state in the last 5 years. Ya gotta ask---where'd that money go Ma'am? It
certainly didn't go into the levee's, it certainly didn't go into modernizing the many pumps around the city of NO...in fact, nobody can find it.
Yet even THAT is somehow GW's fault.......................not.
GW didn't make the storm, nor enhance it, nor did he drive any busses out of the area.
Another thing so many people do not understand...FEMA is not a First Responder, nor are they a rescue team, nor are they food/water distributers, nor
are they bus drivers. FEMA responds only AFTER the state has declared itself a disaster area, and only AFTER the Feds have declared the area a
disaster area. Only THEN can they begin to bring together those agencies that DO First Respond, conduct rescues, distribute food/water, and bring in
the busses to get people out of there. The Mayor did not use nearly 2000 school busses from all surrounding parishes, and the Governor has YET to
declare a state of emergency or disaster area! Recall, the levee's did not fail, and major flooding did not occur in NO until AFTER the storm passed,
people could STILL get out.
The Mayor of NO killed his people by his own inaction. The Governor killed her people by her ignorance.
Has anyone heard about all this lack of anything in Mississippi or Alabama (which sustained far more damage than LA)? Know why? THEY got the hell out
of there!
...and don't EVEN get me started on the racism charges...
