AMERICA - The Right Way!! (Day 1691) [Remember the Trade Center!!]

[Chairman_December_19th_Society]

We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail!

Good morning!!

Do not let the victims of the attacks on New York and Washington, nor the brave members of our Nation's military who have given their lives to protect our freedom, die in vain!!

Four people have died as a result of norovirus, an easily spread cause of diarheea and vomiting, caused by infection associated with contact with the contaminated flood waters of New Orleans.

The EPA is testing what, exactly, is in the flood waters, and preliminary results will be available by weeks end.

It is known now, however, that e. coli is present in the water at 450,000 times safe levels.

NOPD officials say there are about 10,000 residents remaining in New Orleans, and those will be removed by force, if necessary.

A makeshift jail has been made at the New Orleans bus station--the first inmate was an individual who drove up to get a bus ticket out of town in a car he had stolen.

Eko-wackos are on their ever vigilant nannyism--scientists are warning about the long-term damage to the ecosystem by pumping New Orleans flood waters back into Lake Ponchatrain (like, where do they want it pumped?)

And the pumping? Three pumping stations are online, of the city's 148 pumps, and each is moving 4,600 cubic feet per second. This is somewhat better than a portable pump the Army Corps of Engineers had been using, which moved 9 cubic feet per second.

Flood waters should be removed in 3 1/2 weeks from eastern New Orleans, and in 2 1/2 months from Chalmette.

The good news is that 182,000 people have been rescued.

For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.

Excellent name.

I think that's true, too. I would not dare buy petro products on the commodities market now. This really smells like a super top to me. There is no taking into account right now how prices like this will lessen demand - and it will, though perhaps not in the US and perhaps not immediately, but it will happen. I noticed that the commodities markets contracts for the Dec07 are lower than Dec06... and that the '08, '09, '10, and '11 are about a buck a barrel lower each year. Smart long-term commodities traders are not anticipating runaway demand and increasing prices...

[lysie]

That's so cute. Thank you.

Hello Toby, so nice to see you again today. One good thing about all the animals on you place, they keep the grass cut. We keep you all in our thoughts and prayers.

So, from this table, it is clear that the energy futures closed near their lows for the day. I expect they'll continue down, as I said near the beginning of today.

Thanks!

S'matter? R U ill today?

[bevlar]

I am so very PROUD of you and your buddies!!!

Oh goodie...Mara Liason on Brit Humme's show again...blechhhhh

Sorry, Chair: that second link I posted doesn't work for some reason I just discovered. Here's a different link to the same story:

That's why we are at an EXTREME disadvantage. Even FNC, the closest thing on TV we have to conservative reporting and journalism, allows this POISON to infest it and spew its lies.

[bevlar]

Does Mara have the most convoluted mind you have ever witnessed!?!? Being totally redundant here...but, LIBERALISM IS A MENTAL DISORDER!

[bevlar]

The below note is from my extremely liberal son-in-law. I want to answer correctly. I do know that the idiot governor prevented intervention at the Superdome AND I do realize that getting people to the USS Bataan would be logistically impossible, is it even true? Can you all help me research this? Thanks, Bev


"Here's one of many examples: The Chicago Tribune reports that the U.S.S. Bataan, equipped with six operating rooms, hundreds of hospital beds and the ability to produce 100,000 gallons of fresh water a day, has been sitting off the Gulf Coast since last Monday - without patients. Just curious - why were the students at white Tulane Univ. evacuated 3 days before students at black Xavier University? What seems odd is that every major television network had people on the ground within 24 hours of the disaster, but it's took at least 4 days for the federal government to wade into the city with essential supplies and security. Does that make any sense?"

[bevlar]

Oh no! I have killed the thread!!! I am just SO pi**ed off at the liberals! especially, those that happen to be part of my family. I need HELP...:-)

[bevlar]

Just calm down Beverly! It is 4:20 p.m. on the LEFT coast, but it is the dinner hour in the east. Your friends are having dinner, a glass of wine and relaxing. Why don't you go to the kitchen and make yourself a martini abd try to calm down.

OKEYDOKEY! sounds like good advice :-)

[bevlar]

abd ?....hummm and that is before the martini

You're cracking me up. I just got back from a hair dresser appointment and my beautiful 27-year old hair dresser is in love with the president and furious with the press.

Wish I could help answer that e-mail, but I'm so ticked off at all that I'm reading these days that I can barely put together a sentence.

[Miss Marple]

Hi! I don't know about Xavier vs. Tulane, although I think Tulane made its OWN arrangements because they were getting flooded right away.

There was a GREAT report by Major Garrett on Fox. He has been digging all day. The Red Cross had water and food for the Superdome, but they were refused admission to New Orleans by GOVERNOR BLANCO! She was afraid the food and water would be "a magnet" and keep people from leaving. I am not making this up.

As far as the US Bataan, I don't know where it was originally, but "the Gulf Coast" is a pretty wide area. They have been willing to take people as soon as they were brought to them. I am not sure the information you son-in-law has is even correct about that ship.
