But there was also anger and profane catcalls toward the National Guard arriving at the Superdome.

"Hell no, I'm not glad to see them. They should have been here days ago. I ain't glad to see 'em. I'll be glad when 100 buses show up," said 46-year-old Michael Levy, whose words were echoed by those around him yelling,

"Hell, yeah! Hell yeah!" "We've been sleeping on the ... ground like rats," Levy said.

"I say burn this whole ... city down."

Hannity is stunned that the Liberals would do this. If he's stunned he evidently didn't know how far they've sunk.

I agree it's Ghoulish to score political points with bodies floating down a river.

What we have here....is a failure...to COMMUNICATE!!

S'pose it's because the nimrod Mayor and wet-pants Governorette don't KNOW what the hell to do?

It's just a bit early to put both shoes upside their heads; otherwise, I'd complete that montage.

[Types_with_Fist]

its 10000 dead in MS

Have you heard something?

Those two morons have pretty well proven that proposition.

"As a convoy of relief trucks swarmed through downtown, some near the city's convention center threw up their hands and screamed "Thank You, Jesus!"

I cant begin to imagine what a beautiful site that is to these people.

[NautiNurse]

Thought he said LA.

[RDTF]

Are we sure that pic of the dogs was from NO? I don't even know how they would get a bus like that for dogs with the military commandeering them all. Or they be carjacked.

[BurbankKarl]

that would jibe well with the 40k total predicted on FR.

[jeffers]

Surge mode. Good for the short term.

Go MSY!

[bwteim]

NOLA was the reference, I heard, not MS

[BurbankKarl]

A cat hijacked the bus full of dogs.

Why is the water receeding in St. Bernard Parish?

Probably because the River and Industrial Canal are receding. Water flows to the lowest level

[NautiNurse]

I have no doubt POTUS will be a gracious gentleman.

[Texas_Conservative2]

there's no way that theirs 10,000 dead in NO. The city wasn't even hit the bad by the storm, all this damage was caused by the levees breaking not the hurricane.

I saw footage of shep after the hurricane standing in downtown NO and only a few shudders were blown off and some windows broken.

[ican'tbelieveit]

Same thought about that generator. I hope hospitals all over the country are taking lessons and reviewing their policies.

[No Blue States]

What an ungrateful pos he is.

" But there was also anger and profane catcalls toward the National Guard arriving at the Superdome.

"Hell no, I'm not glad to see them. They should have been here days ago. I ain't glad to see 'em."

Leave him there.

"Nagin looked all palsy wowsy with the President."

That valium is wonderful stuff, ain't it??

Maybe Nagin has taken the edge off his jones! lol

Shep - a pair of fresh fires in NO - 1 in the area of downtown, the other appears to be on the west bank.
