Subject: George Carlin on New Orleans

"Been sitting here with my ass in a wad, wanting to speak out about the  
bullshit going on in New Orleans. For the people of New Orleans… First we  
would like to say, Sorry for your loss. With that said, Let’s go through a  
few hurricane rules: (Unlike an earthquake, we know it’s coming)

#1. A mandatory evacuation means just that…Get the hell out.  
Don’t blame the Government after they tell you to go. If they hadn’t said  
anything, I can see the argument. They said get out… if you didn’t, it’s your fault,  
not theirs. (We don’t want to hear it, even if you don’t have a car, you  
can get out.)

#2. If there is an emergency, stock up on water and non-perishables. If you  
didn’t do this, it’s not the Government’s fault you’re starving.

#2a. If you run out of food and water, find a store that has some.  
(Remember, shoes, TV’s, DVD’s and CD’s are not edible. Leave them alone.)

#2b. If the local store has been looted of food or water, leave your  
neighbor’s TV and stereo alone. (See #2a) They worked hard to get their  
stuff. Just because they were smart enough to leave during a mandatory  
evacuation, doesn’t give you the right to take their stuff…it’s theirs, not yours.

#3. If someone comes in to help you, don’t shoot at them and then complain  
no one is helping you. I’m not getting shot to help save some dumbass who  
didn’t leave when told to do so.

#4. If you are in your house that is completely under water, your belongings  
are probably too far gone for anyone to want them. If someone does want  
them, let them have them and hopefully they’ll die in the filth. Just leave!  
(It’s New Orleans, find a voodoo warrior and put a curse on them.)

#5. My tax money should not pay to rebuild a 2 million dollar house, a  
sports stadium or a floating casino. Also, my tax money shouldn’t go to  
rebuild a city that is under sea level. You wouldn’t build your house on  
quicksand would you? You want to live below sea-level, do your country some  
good and join the Navy.

#6. Regardless of what the Poverty Pimps Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton want  
you to believe, The US Government didn’t create the Hurricane as a way to  
eradicate the black people of New Orleans; (Neither did Russia as a way to  
destroy America). The US Government didn’t cause global warming that caused  
the hurricane (We’ve been coming out of an ice age for over a million years).

#7. The government isn’t responsible for giving you anything. This is the  
land of the free and the home of the brave, but you gotta work for what you  
want. McDonalds and Wal-Mart are always hiring, get a damn job and stop  
spooning off the people who are actually working for a living. President  
Kennedy said it best…“Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what  
you can do for your country.”

That doesnt sound anything like Carlin’s style.

Now that, ^^, is an ironic statement.

I can actually see that becuase George Carlin does not like the Government… I thought it odd that he was being so supportive of the Government considering how highly he sees our President.

Good work super slueth. I was going to post that I didn’ think it was Carlin. There is so much shit on the internet that people post and then to validate it, say that Carlin said it. Ridiculous.
