My heart goes out to the people affected. We know a thing or two about flooding here in Iowa. It’s not pretty. It’s not fun. And it takes a long time to recover/rebuild.

Thanks for the video. If it wasn't for the fact I made friends with someone on Free Republic from Nashville, Tennessee, I would have known nothing about this.

The numbing of America?! Pray!

Well..at least the street lights are working.

Floods like these just keep going and going and going and going on and on.

What a mess.

Oh my dear Lord Jesus :(

I had no idea the situation was of this magnitude!

Why on this earth is this not on every news channel! I mean seriously, this is an outrage.

I am a Katrina survivor, the government helped me when I was screwed. If the same help is not made available to those who need such help in tennessee, then I don’t even know what to say.

I know you guys are very proud, and don’t want any government help. But you should have it, and I mean no insult by that. If anything, the purpose of the government is to protect its citizens, and by God if it can bail out every bank and other nation, than it can make funds available to americans who need them.

I better stop ranting before I get myself in trouble. God Bless Tennessee.

God bless you...I’ve been in Tn (Murfreesboro) for 7 years now...I love the people and what they represent when it comes to good foundational actions...God is first...lay it in His hands and do what we can do with His help and make things right!...I guess it’s a southern/TN thing!

Well, a previous President was accused of not helping fast enough because he hated people of a certain color. Is the mirror-image theory true for the current occupant of the White Crib?

Not just Nashville. From Memphis to Nashville was hit hard. Lots of photos of the Millington Navy base being flooded, after Big Creek Levy broke. 1 Trailer park with 300+ mobile homes had 7 feet of water in them. they used tour busses to evacuate the mobile home park. The Navy housing was evacuated. Memphis Mid Town flooded, due to a water pump breaking. Fortunately only 1 loss of life in Memphis...so far. We’ve seen little reports on MS and AR, they had twisters along with the flash flooding. Lives were lost in those states too.

You know, hotdog, I don’t know an awful lot about Tennesee, except that it is among the most beautiful places I have ever seen. I had been there once with my mom when I was about 12 years old. We visited Gatlinburg and Chattanooga.

I enjoyed a place called Rock City where there was a rope bridge high above a canyon as well as a view of some 5 states from one of the mountains. We also walked on the trails of the Smokey mountains, but were scared back to the car by trees that had been shredded by bear claws.

Also had the opportunity to swim in the mountaijn streams there. The water was so cold, but it was so much fun. Except when I almost got sucked over a small waterfall, because I got up in the current. A cliff diver, of all things, came and snatched me up before I got to close to it. After that, we just swam in the pool below this fall while this guy dove into the water from high rocks.

This time in Tennessee was just one of those things that you never forget, because it was just that beautiful. And now to see it as it is brings tears to my eyes.

Please, Lord, no more rain. Help the good people of Tennessee.
