"My comments about rebuilding the city were intended to reflect my sincere concern with how the city is rebuilt to ensure the future protection of its citizens and not to suggest that this great and historic city should not be rebuilt," the statement said.



That dumb bit*h and Landrieu as well are playing petty politics instead of dealing with this crisis. If Landrieu thanks one more politico I'm going to scream. Blanco needs to STFU.

Are MRE's bad?

If they're good enough for our troops, they're good enough for some welfare queen who's whining because George Bush didn't personally deliver her a steak and lobster dinner.

Are NOPD guys walking out of this situation?

Yes. 20% of several precincts have just walked off the job.

The Salvation Army is probably the best organization to donate to. I don't trust the Red Cross. Not just what happened after 9-11 but what they did locally here.

Hastert has already backed off.

in fact, his comment was so assinine, that now I fear that no one will dare ask any intelligent questions about how NO will be rebuilt. Its going to be a blank check from the federal government, pumped into one of the most politically corrupt city and state in the union.

Its going to be like the Big Dig tunnel in Boston - times 1000.

Live on LA police scanner.

State EOC just asked Pelican base if food or water had been delivered to the Convention Center today.

Pelican Base (don't know who this is) states they don't know and need to confirm.

To God be the glory.

And our prayers...

This is one of the few times in my life I am literally speechless.

Prayers for All...

The Drms will call for an investigation, the ACLU will call for indictments.

Food for four for two days and cleaning supplies for $100? That is not much for $100.

and they have no respect of the police and just a little fear of their guns.

That's because the police don't ( aren't allowed to use them )

And New Orleans could not take a lesson from Florida in hurricane preparation? Poor planning on their part has created a huge crisis...

"even to the rate that people are worried that the Astrodome is going to become a repeat of the Superdome minus the flood."

They certainly won't let this happen; I hope.
They will need to keep these people on a very short leash.

They will need to kept occupied, kids schooled.
I would suggest the local community college have classes for the adults.
Keep them busy, make them work, go to school; etc.
They need structure and security.
Houston does NOT need to import anarchy.

"Fallujah has never been "secured" based on your definition of eliminating evry sniper and deadender with bad thoughts on his mind"

When did I make that definition?

The Governor said much earlier this afternoon that there were only 2400 left at the SuperDome. Was she wrong in those figures?

Can you post Fox's email address? Maybe there's a way we can help one small kid.
