Hurricane Katrina - Nancy Pelosi - Washington, DC – 2005 & Accountability Benedict XVI Child Sexual Abuse = Looking For Leadership in a Storm!!!

Hurricane Katrina 

was one of the strongest storms to impact the coast of the United States during the last 100 years. With sustained winds during landfall of 125 mph (110 kts) (a strong category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale) and minimum central pressure the third lowest on record at landfall (920 mb), Katrina caused widespread devastation along the central Gulf Coast states of the US. Cities such as New Orleans, LA, Mobile, AL, and Gulfport, MS bore the brunt of Katrina's force and will need weeks and months of recovery efforts to restore normality.

Benedict XVI’ New Mass Translation, Should Be POSTPONED INDEFINITELY Children First, In The Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ

First and Foremost Assure Protection of Children Globally, Transparency Independent Investigations, Restitution Made To Victims Before Benedict XVI’ New Mass Translation, Should Be POSTPONED INDEFINITELY In The Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ

It had been reported that the reason Benedict XVI, as Cardinal Ratzinger should be excused from any culpability for the reassigning of pedophile clergy, because he was heavily involved in theological issues, which before God is no excuse.  Now, Benedict XVI and the hierarchy are involved in the negligence of globally failing to protect children, which has not been resolved only covered up again. Benedict XVI appears to be repeating the same irresponsible behavior regarding the safety and well-being of children, with all due respect.  To remain silent regarding this issue is to collude with this travesty of justice to children and the victims of child sexual abuse – a sacrilege committed every time we would celebrate this new mass of Benedict XVI.

Katrina Hurricane USA 

 August 29, 2005

This has been a painful week for all Americans, this week of storms and floods and destruction. I'm sure that in every household in this country someone has gone to bed this week only to become totally awake with the words of displaced people echoing in their heads. I know there are people sitting down to dinner with family and friends who suddenly feel the beginnings of a bellyache, feeling irrationally guilty about a good dinner, not to mention taking out the trash, turning on the tap, flushing the toilet.

Sending money to the Red Cross is important, and everyone ought to do it, but somehow this terrible situation has made us feel that we have to get off the sidelines and onto the field because somebody has to do it. I say that as a professional sidelines stander. For all the years that I've covered politics and a few floods and earthquakes, I've been very clear that my job was to show up and then tell our listeners what I'd seen and heard. It's an article of faith with me that I serve a useful purpose on the sidelines, and I've never been tempted to wade into a demonstration, grab a banner and start marching. I have never wanted to grab a politician by the back of his neck and try to shake some sense into him or her. Well, almost never. But four long days watching suffering people waiting has tested my resolve… Photo

…In some ways, that missing leadership is rising everywhere out of a 

national compassionate impulse to treat the victims of Hurricane Katrina as Americans want them to be treated...

Week in Review: Hurricane Katrina

WERTHEIMER: Yes. Usually we try to give a review of all the week's news in this segment, but the devastation from Hurricane Katrina has been so huge we thought we'd stick to that single subject today, and we need to look at both the human and the governmental aspects, because it's become truly a crisis at both levels. Let's start with the human side. Lives were disrupted; many died in Mississippi and Alabama, as well as in New Orleans. But it was in New Orleans where the most people have been affected. What struck you as you heard and read about it?

SCHORR: Well, of course, you are struck by the immensity of it and the tragedy of it, but there was one additional thing that struck me and that is a disaster is not an equal-opportunity thing. When they called for evacuation from New Orleans, those with cars drove out. Those without cars got stuck there. And those without cars were predominantly black and poor people. That struck me.
