Quotes

Hugh Pickens writes "The Christian Science Monitor reports that a federal judge has ruled that the Army Corps of Engineers and thus the US government is liable for a big chunk of the damage caused when hurricane Katrina pushed ashore on August 29, 2005 by failing to stop the natural widening of the Mississippi River Gulf Outlet canal (aka Mr. Go) causing it to eventually bump up against the shore of Lake Borgne, on the city's east side. 'It is the court's opinion that the negligence of the corps, in this instance by failing to maintain the MR-GO properly, was not policy, but insouciance, myopia, and shortsightedness,' wrote US District Court Judge Stanwood Duval. Judge Duval said he believed it was the failure to shore up the outlet that 'doomed the channel to grow to two to three times its design width' allowing waves on Lake Borgne to enter the Mr. Go and travel into the east side of the city, battering the levees to a degree to which they were not designed. 'One of the greatest catastrophes in the history of the US' was both predictable and preventable, testified veteran Louisiana geologist Sherwood Gagliano, a former Corps consultant."
...I mean, the cited verse comes, as the story says, from 109:8. And now consider that 109:9 says: "Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow." In fact, the entire 109th is kind of crazy , obviously written by somebody who needed anger management training...
...Christian Science Monitor reports that the score from the Congressional Budget Office — the cause of all the waiting — presents a special problem. "The leadership team drafting the Senate bill (is) using CBO estimates of how much various potential healthcare reforms will cost to rejig their draft bill. The goal is to get the score — and the mix of policy — necessary to get a bill through the Senate" (Russell Chaddock, 11/17)
