we need to rev up the political machine on our side quickly, starting with talk radio. let's drop this "new tone" crap, fast. you cannot behave in an honest fashion with these rabid Dems and their media lap dogs.

Is it true that the president is not going to get off the chopper in NO? I understand security concerns and all that, but I think he could really do some good for the people down there not to mention reverse a little of the MSM spin if he'd touch down.

Agreed, you cannot deal honestly with Dems, racists or looters. Just stop them.

OTOH, the left will always win that fight. The best way to deal with the political fallout will be to have honest Congressional hearings, with a chairman who's not afraid to cut off the demagogues in mid-rant.

I think the political calculus in play here is the 2006 mid-term elections. The hearings must be held soon, and if they're honest hearings it will cut the legs off this short-term bitching.

At the President presser the Gov of Alabama is all proactive showing all that they have done. Mississippi Governor is all Proactive SHowing what they have done.

I got the feeling that the Governor of LA will not either be there or have anything to say on what she has done.
