[Two Thirds Vote Aye]

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.

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?"
