They can go to hell. They're a bunch of small groups, cobbled together U.S. haters, who have been blown off the front pages by this tragedy and still they try to claw their way back into the headlines (of course with the willing help of their fellow travelers the msm).

***.... Now, the leftist anti-war groupies have found a live one, and are jumping on the bandwagon from near and far.
The groupies have created quite a sizeable coalition at Sheehan’s campout in Texas. Some of the headliners include Gold Star Families for Peace, Code Pink, Veterans for Peace, Military Families Speak Out and the Crawford Peace House.
All of these groups are on the steering committee of United for Peace and Justice, a major anti-war organization.
Also with a presence on UPJ’s steering committee is the Communist Party USA. Makes for interesting bedfellows, doesn’t it?
UPJ was the brainchild behind the march on the 2004 Republican National Convention in New York.
When 253 of its protesters were polled by the New York Sun as to whether they felt that “Iraqi attacks on Americans occupying Iraq are legitimate resistance” 67 percent answered yes.
This means Sheehan’s coalition thinks the kind of attack that killed her son is perfectly okay. ....*** Source
Thanks for the info and the links.
Yes.
Now their citizens will see what they voted for.
The pictures I saw reminded me of the tsunami destruction.
I have not followed a hurricane ever like I have this one..
The toll will be much larger, I fear, than is now being reported.
Indeed..
I haven't followed hurricane coverage much in the past either. I've never seen such destruction from a hurricane on a massive scale such as this one, and I'm not old enough to remember Camille. The only way I've seen the effects of Camille were from grainy film footage on The Weather Channel.
Whether they help or not, I'll still laugh at them. Either way, to me, they're worthless. If we can handle the rescue and recovery efforts of a tsunami a half world away, we can do it at home.
Bump!
The silence from our EU pals is deafening. Oh, I forgot. Der Spiegel blames Katrina on US arrogance. We didn't sign Kyoto, etc., monstrous consumption of energy, blah, blah, blah.
MOSS POINT, Miss Residents make their way to safety through flood waters that swept through low lying areas.
"Americans will take care of their own."
Bump!

I remember this one because it destroyed some historic places my parents enjoyed visiting..Unfortunately survivors of that storm and those who were in buildings that survived that storm felt like they could stay this time..after all Camille was the BIG one.
There was nothing like the coverage that today's cable does then.
Always have........Always will.....
