Rick Santorum said this today:
I mean, you have people who don't heed those warnings and then put people at risk as a result of not heeding those warnings. There may be a need to look at tougher penalties on those who decide to ride it out and understand that there are consequences to not leaving.
Thanks to vmsnews for the video and The Raw Story for pointing me there.
What are you going to do to them Rick? Fill their houses with water?
This guy keeps shooting off his mouth and makes Casey's job easier. I remember when he was first elected and voted against flood relief when the Mississippi jumped it's banks. I lived through the Agnes flood and have never forgiven him for that.

Aaron Neville Louisiana 1927 lyrics Aaron Neville Louisiana 1927 lyrics
(Randy Newman)
What has happened down here, is the winds have changed
Clouds roll in from the north and it started to rain
It rained real hard, and it rained for a real long time
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline
The river rose all day, the river rose all night
Some people got lost in the flood, some people got away alright
The river had busted through clear down to Plackermine
Six feet of water in the streets of Evangeline
Louisiana, Louisiana
They're trying to wash us away, they're trying to wash us away
Oh Louisiana, Louisiana
They're trying to wash us away, they're trying to wash us away
President Coolidge come down, in a railroad train
With his little fat man with a note pad in his hand
President say little fat man, oh isn't it a shame,
What the river has done to this poor farmer's land
Oh Louisiana, Louisiana
They're trying to wash us away, you're trying to wash us away
Oh Louisiana, oh Louisiana
They're trying to wash us away, oh Lord, they're trying to wash us away
They're trying to wash us away, they're trying to wash us away
Nobody asked me, and it may be in poor taste to inject politics into this natural disaster; but if the Democratic party cannot make hay out of the shameful, inept, "Keystone Cops" behavior of the administration in reaction to Katrina, then his Holiness predicts that they will never be in power for a generation at least. HOwever, if we can conduct ourselves with brutal clarity, adorned with compassion and common sense that the masses will understand historians may one day write that while many had previously thought that the war in Iraq would define the success or failure of the Republicans, in the end it turned out to be a weather pattern named Katrina.
We're the people who made you, when you said you cared for us all; we're the people who'll break you. Get prepared for the fall.
