You're absolutely right. It's almost midnight, EDT, and I have had CNN or Fox news on all evening.....nothing on Katrina. I did see them mention, around 6 oclock, that many vacationers in New Orleans were foreigners and didn't understand that a hurricane was forecast for New Orleans. They didn't understand the need to evacuate. How sad!

I was watching WWL a little while ago and they were interviewing Houma residents. They were having a shrimp boil and said they weren't going to leave. It is so sad. They've never had a cat 4 storm down there and they don't know what they're facing.

Well if he knows that, he should help them!!
Doesn't he have a picture of a tsunami he can point to (from his monitor or the studio) and show them?? They'll get it.

The mayor is playing politics.
If the hurricane passes over, he'll get blamed for everyone leaving and the loss of money.
He's thinking about his career.
