Shep clearly is too emotionally overcome to do his job. Would FOX please pull him now?

I did not say the person was ugly, or deformed or anything else. You are a newby and you need to get over youself. We use humor here,self deprecating and funny things about foibles of others, and if you were not such a greenhorn you would not be copping an attitude. I make fun about myself all the time as do most other freepers. Maybe when you sit back and lurk you will develop a freeper sense of humor. It really helps in stressful times such as now. I survived three Hurricanes last year and one TS and as most people did with humor and helping each other. You do what you want, I will retain my sense of humor and continue to help others keep theirs, with one exception.

Earlier today WWL reported that there were only 2500 people left in the superdome.

So Jackson gets up with an incompetent Governor and the CEO of Venezuela's oil company and complains about the price of oil? This left-wing propagandist and all-around phoney POS should get his dumb butt kicked.

Got to remember that some of the crap that is going on in New Orleans is payback by the Louisiana Democrats for Nagin supporting the Republican candidate against Blanco the Democrat.

When will Republicans learn that for many liberal Democrats, life means nothing as long as their power is sustained by any means possible.

Blanco is playing games with the lives of those stranded in New Orleans try to teach a black upstart not to get off the Jessie Race Baiting Jackson Plantation Democrat plantation.

So the majority black plantation workers have to suffer.

It's the old Hellary Clinton thing of crushing anyone who disagrees with them.

Thank you for your comment. I wish all Freepers thought like you. What we (some Freepers are) should be clamoring for is some real leadership to get this situation under control. It helps no one to whine and complain about the inevitable mobs that will arise when then the leaders showed no prepardness, no effective response, and people are struggling for their lives. It's a mute point. Mob rule is a given in that type of situation. It's up to the leaders to prevent it and to fix it. They did and continue to do nothing. Bush should fire everyone at FEMA and put the military in charge. They're obviously the only goverment organization that can do anything effectively these days. Leadership, discipline, and courage are what's needed. Sorry for my rant, but like you I had some things to get off of my chest.

Pay attention to the reports of the people inside the Superdome. They will be coming in droves in the near future.

I will say ONCE AGAIN. Those people in MS crying over losing their possessions should thank GOD they are not in NO.

Don't interject your ASSUMPTIONS into my post.

I noticed the clean clothes just like I noticed that Shep is clean shaven but claims to be one with these people.

"They" are doing every possible. "They" are responding to a disaster of epic proportions. Some people may believe a disaster ends the day the sun comes up, but the reality is transportation and equipment doesn't materialize out of thin air. There have been a steady stream of buses carrying people away from that site all day long. Right now, there is a break. That is life in a disaster area.

I wish they (MSM) would show more of the missions being flown from the ship, and more about the ships on the way.

It's becoming more like Iraq, in that they only show the bad stuff, and not much of the heroic stuff that's going on (although there is a little).

OK.I hear that. A few drops of rainwater might save one at this point. Please forgive my conclusion jumping.

I say don't pull Shep. People need to see the scope of this disaster. If anyone one of us were in Shep's shoes, we would be the same way. Shep did show a dead body earlier; however, I feel that is justified b/c reality needs to be shown. Actually seeing a body hits hard compared to just hearing numbers of how many are dead.

Just saw on one of the News channels Detroit offer to take basically everbody.

A FReeper posted this notion quite some time ago, either on the last thread, or the one before it. Quite the braintrust around here--wish I could recall the FReeper who posted it.
