My best friend is being brainwashed

My best friend (I shall go with along with a tradition started on our friend's DeadJournal years ago, and refer to him as 'Mr. User Friendly') started working as a trucker a couple weeks ago. He has the weekend off, so we made plans to go out to supper with his parents. On the way down to the Ryan's in Clarksburg, we had the chance to talk. Normally, we pretty much agree, but not now. He's been getting on the job training with a TE (technical engineer). Said TE only wants to listen to AM talk radio. Mr. User Friendly swears he's tried to tune it out, but it obviously hasn't worked. He was telling me about how "everyone is saying the problems in NOLA were caused by the Mayor and Governor". I told him about the poll that was just released today that says that two-thirds of Americans think Bush failed to do enough in the aftermath of Katrina. He didn't believe me. Here's a link to more info about the poll: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/4229238.stm

When I see him tomorrow, I plan on directing him to one webpage I know he will respect. Snopes.com. I checked out the latest stories on there, and found one entitled 'Blame Nagin'.

Claim: New Orleans mayor Ray Nagin and Louisiana governor Kathleen Blanco refused President Bush's pleas to declare an emergency in Louisiana before Hurricane Katrina struck.

Status: False.
