No, I don't have a heart for lazy, ignorant people that stayed in New Orleans in their shanties after being continuously warned that the hurricane had reached catastrophic proportions. Then, when their lives were destroyed by the worst natural disaster in US history.....they take the easy cop out and blame Bush or the US Government instead of looking at their own mayor and governor whom didn't provide for a mandatory evacuation until 19 hours before landfall and didn't fix the inaduquate levees which caused 80% flooding in the city, even though civil engineers had warned them in 1986 that a massive hurrincane would render them useless.

We have so much to say about blacks and poor people without walking in their shoes for a day!
All the UN can do is make a recommendation or suggestion (as stated by the article) - they can't force or MAKE the US do anything.
And in what way is the UN biting the hand that is feeding them! Personally, I definitely disagree.
