Well... send that to them. I think we need to inundate the media with email complaints and we need to take the opportunity to point out that neither dems or republicans created the hurricane, but the republicans didn't create this cesspool of thugs.

"despite the fact that city officials had been telling people for days to gather there"

That is why God invented the MSM. Just turn on the TV, the radio, and surf the net. You would notice that there seemed to be a lot of folks in and around the dome.

After those remaining in NOLA voluntarily are evacutated, IMHO you will have several thousand hard core thugs, criminals,a nd druggies who will stay, and will have to be rooted out house-to-house..You will soon see urban combat in NO

What did the CBC say?

So far today, I have heard clips of Jesse Jackson jr..and the one guy that was on Air America that I didn't get the name of....BOTH are totally blaming Bush from what I hear.

"Did you hear the Congressional Black Caucus this morning? It was appalling." -- I saw it. Couldn't figure out why they weren't asking the trouble-makers to stop shooting, looting, arson, etc... instead of blaming Bush.

I saw a FEMA guy in an interview yesterday and he said that FEMA was there to ASSIST the local and state government, they are not 'in charge'.

Exactly. And FEMA is NOT in charge nor does it facillitate EVACUATIONS.

All I heard last year after the presidential election was the MSM saying "The President should reach out to Democrats."

Why isn't the MSM doing the same now? Rhetorical question, of course.

Yeah, everytime I see someone talking about the money it will take to support these people long term I want to say, "who do you think has been supporting them long term already?" A lot of these people were already on welfare and living in HUD housing.

......
Correct, the only thing different will be America will now have to physically(instead of just financially) absorb new residents causing a ripple effect nation wide. Before, they were all centralized in one large area, the LA south.

You guys need to think about how much explosive it would take to blow a levee - it is a whole lot. What takes out levees is huge water surges from storms, not tiny amount of explosives. Learn some physics man.

I know my physics, and I know that levee-blowing is a time-tested science.

Yes. That is true. New Orleans has the 5th largest poor black population in the country and 67% live on welfare.

Because blaming Bush is all they know how to do.

The locals have been head down, ostrich style, and I think FEMA has used their "all is well" estimates to plan their own operation.

I guess none of them watch television or listen to the radio. In any event, nobody has said "all is well" ever. They have said the precise opposite.

BTW I burnt my tongue on a Hot Pocket and it's all Bush and Rove's fault.

A Rovian moment :-)

"To: Abigail Adams
What's going on at Harrigan's location? I'm trying to catch up.

A while back, there was a shot off to the right (of the screen). A few minutes ago, there was...
- Shots off to the left, which a National Guard truck headed toward.
- A standoff between police and the occupants of a green Cadillac.
- Several pickup trucks loaded with heavily-armed police driving off to the right of the location."




SOP from FM 90-10, "Military Operations in Urban Terrain", fix the enemy by fires from the front, flank them to the sides, then roll them up.
