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.
Happy 25th!!!
LOL - out of town. He left yesterday for OK. We were home one day before he had to leave!
I heard that!!!! She's an idiot.
I'll be fine.
Why did I know that would happen? Could be because you and I have the same luck.
Fox just said that the damage to the Superdome is $400 million!!!!!
Thank you.
On the goofy card I gave Mr. Peach, I thanked him for:
Thank you for putting up with listening to me say swear words in the study as I read the truth on FR and listen to the lies on television.
Thank you for not being embarrassed when I accidentally said LOL instead of laughing.
Thank you for not being nuts with me when I talk about people by their screen name and you have NO idea who I'm talking about, but nodding appreciatively anyway.
Yes, we do have the same luck!
I see pork on the political table, how about you?
FNC just read an e-mail from General Honoree. He said the military is in NO for a purely relief function and does not participate in law enforcement (thanks to the lackluster Governor).
As such, he said, the New Orleans police will have to keep law and order and force evacuations from New Orleans.
This will be difficult because so many New Orleans police have walked off the job, the Mayor is giving them a paid vacation to Los Angeles, and lots of cop cars have shown up in Houston where even the cops evidently evacuated to. And they will not be prosecuted, according to the article about that on FR.
Oh, I can think of a place or two....
And I don't want to know what all is in the water, grosses me out. Good morning folks.
Rhett Butler said there is money to be made in the destruction of civilizations as well as in the building up of them.
started the zinc routine myself today...just to prevent and get ahead of anything I might be exposed to this week.
Feel better soon, sweetie.
Happy Anniversary! Congratulations on the silver one!
Thanks so much for the clarification, Peach (and you always have really GOOD research to back you up)! Do you suppose Blanco will face criminal charges?
Will be out for a few days. Hope your anniversary was all you hoped it would be!
For goodness sake...even though this has been stated thousands of times on FR...I can't "digest" the fact people were sent there rather than bussed out...can't... won't... never will.
Cripes, all the NO dems politicians must have been watching duh head Shep saying NO dodged it AND thought he was some kind of expert.
The governor procrastinates Blaco, of course...Wash Times
Blanco is an incompetent who I believe will be toast after all this is sorted out. As another article I read put it, Haley Barbour avoided turning Biloxi and other MS towns into killing fields because he took action early.
