I will not go into panic mode.
BTTT
Doomed!!!
amen to that.
WE ARE DOOMED! THE END IS COMING! WE NEED HILLARY TO SAVE US!!! Man, what am I saying. Slap me back to reality.
Then you will be left all alone............
Not quite...according to http://news.ft.com/cms/s/182d0182-18c5-11da-8fe9-00000e2511c8.html, analysts estimated roughly 12 per cent of total US crude oil production and 10 per cent of US refining capacity had to be shut down - so your doomsday scenario is just as misplaced as you claim the media's rosy picture to be.
Last I heard NO has declared martial law. No wonder...saw some film of people looting, I think it was in Mississippi. And I'm sure before long there will be bogus "contractors" out to prey on the devastated, if they haven't already started.
Sad thing is that a devastating event like this brings out the bad as well as the good.
Also heard the death toll in just one part of Mississippi is now 80.
geeze, and the President's on vacation too. Why isn't he down there rebuilding????????? what a slacker. (sarcasm)
Slap me back to reality.

Ok...
(((SLAP)))
And to think Bush could've fixed all this!

LOL
Your post made me feel like I had listened to Air American for 5 minutes. All doom and gloom, all the time.
bttt
finally.
And to think Bush could've fixed all this!

He could have prevented this...by signing the Kyoto Agreement.
Actually saw this on some other politics website. :)
Far less deaths than the worst case scenario would have produced, but the death toll is going to rise considerably.
The economic impact is going to be severe for the nation, catastrophic for Louisianna.
Gas prices will rise further. New Orleans is flooding and will be under water for months.
Sh1t happens. Mother Nature's a bitch.
