I wonder what kind of bitter hatred is required to make someone use the event of a tragedy to try to score political coup against someone? Frankly, for one to be so consumed by this hatred as to use the events of last week as their platform is disgraceful. I am sure in retrospect they will regret that. Actually, I doubt it.

When the facts come out on all of this, it may be appropriate to discuss where the system failed those in New Orleans. But until then, comments are gossip and slander. At least those who are consumed by such speech will probably be the first to apologize if they find out they were wrong. Actually I doubt it.

Despite the fact that (would you ever believe it) people are not perfect and the systems they employ are therefore imperfect, I know that God will somehow be glorified through the events of last week. Whether it is in some grand way that actually reaches the cameras of Fox and CNN or whether it is in a dark corner of despair wherein the love of Christ shines a glimmer of hope, I don't doubt that at all.
