Earlier today he pointed out a National Guard dumptruck bringing a whole truckload of bottled water onto the overpass. Then he closed his piece tonight by saying there has been no water on the overpass for days. I don't know if he's lying or delusional, but he sure as heck isn't reporting the truth.

That wasn't a water truck as he had first thought, because soon after it arrived people start climbing into it and loading up the sacks they were carrying.

But hey, the President is a Republican, so I guess we are supposed to ignore the bad things, lest we risk it in some way reflecting badly on him. I guess that I sometimes forget that this is a political website, but thanks for reminding me.

"That wasn't a water truck as he had first thought, "

You didn't read what I wrote. It was a dumptruck with at least two pallet loads of water bottles in its bed. Interestingly, later Shepard was describing the "chaos and absolute lack of help or support" as three large, air conditioned motor coaches full of people from the stadium rolled away behind him. So you can babble on about "political websites" et al, but unless you can only hear Sheppard and not see what is going on around him, I guess I can't understand your comments.

Whats the president or being a republican have to do with whether or not the truck had water?

I believe this is the Louisiana National Guard under governor Blanco.
