I think Shep is doing a great job. Jeez, give it a f'ng break. Dead bodies? Gangs roaming the streets? People stranded and hysterical?
Hey, Libs you're just watching the Trailor to Terrorist attack news reporting. I want to see HOW prepared we are and to let everyone know this is what they'll get, only worse, if we pull out of Iraq.
I think Shep is using his position to call attention to the situation around him. Yesterday he got help for two families that had little babies distressed from the heat. He's alright IMHO.
That's a good point- leaving now would be a disaster.
It will take time for people, even on this board to fully grasp the magnitude of this disaster, and how utterly unprepared we were on all levels, local, state, and federal.
