Comparing Katrina to what is taking place on the border is silly political banter. ONE was a natural disaster and one is a man made one that could have been avoided.

Agreed, and should have been avoided, rather than solicited. But then, attempts at governance are mostly theater these days anyway. His comparison is getting a lot of exposure but, it does show that at least some Dems are willing to uncircle the wagons at Barack's expense, just a little.

I remember certain Republican's warning that present immigration policy would entice or otherwise encourage something like this. And I remember Barack mocking them and laughing them to scorn for airing those warnings. Arrogance and statesmanship don't go hand in hand. Just like he disrespectfully mocked Romney, for suggesting that Russia was the United State's most dangerous geopolitical foe. The only people still laughing about that one are Russian.
