I agree, but geez, can't they wait for 1 hour??
FNC just said the Gov of LA and mayor of New Orleans will be coming up. The Gov was just on. Sorry, I know it could be a terrible catastrophe if Katrina hits New Orleans, and I don't mean to slight it, but can't we have ONE OR TWO HOURS!!!
They went non-stop all weekend w the John Kennedy Jr crash and we can't even get a lousy hour. Frustrated (but so excited for the FReepers that are there)
I'm a HUGE supporter of the Crawford FReep ..I wish I could be there. It's very important and wonderful that there's so much good support there, and that the message of the patriots and freedom lovers gets out to counter the MSM and the Witch in the Ditch's mis-impressions out there.
However, at this moment, the people in the strike area of the storm, with the many hours it will take to prep or make plans .. NEED TO KNOW NOW AND EVACUATE this area, and it's vital that the message gets repeated frequently, as more National Hurricane Center info comes in. EVERY MINUTE COUNTS at this point. I'm worried that they waited too long to start the process. We're talking about the credible belief of the strong likelihood of Cat. 3-5 storm and winds of 130mph+.
If Ivan had not missed New Orleans, it's estimated that 40-60,000 would have perished.
