That's why I posted that .. each thread had people who were angry about the lack of coverage for the issue on which they were focused.
I know, and you are completely correct.
I have followed both threads very closely all day (and half the night), and to me it shows how much FReepers care. I so support the Crawford anti-Cindy issue, and I wish I could have been there.
I also look with chagrin at a hurricane that is going to (probably) destroy New Orleans and kill a LOT of people, due to not only the actual event, but the political shenanigans as well. Both issues are extremely important, but completely different, no?
Too bad they are taking place at the same time.
The MSM will never (as has been pointed out in previous comments) focus on the great job that FReepers are doing in Crawford, and what FR stands for. At the same time, the MSM missed the tsunami and, by Jove, will make sure that the death/destruction when Hurricane Katrina hits will NOT miss their cameras this time. They are slime, pure and simple.
Blood and guts sells. Left wing socialism/communism sells.
We know better, and so do most Americans.
God Bless America and God Bless our Troops!!!
