Actually that is a shot across the bow to warn the 'rats that they don't want to overplay their hand..

The City is ON FIRE
Teams Alpha and Bravo finished the medium range recon and there are 3 separate locations on fire. We have pictures coming shortly.
During the recon, I spoke to some Federal Marshalls and NOPD. Morale is LOW. Very low. They're not seeing the military presence they say they were promised. I told those guys they can't possibly imagine how much we (the world) appreciate their dedication. I asked what civil rights the citizens have and the US Marshalls looked at me like I just fell off the turnip truck and chuckled. I asked if citizens can have guns for protection and he said if someone thinks he needs a gun, he should have already evacuated. He also said they are setting the city on fire.
The NOPD wants to know where "the two active duty brigades" were that he says they were told were supposed to arrive today. When I asked him what he would want to tell the world, he said Everyone keeps talking about the military presence in the city, and then asked me," Do you see any military around here" in dusgust.
We reconned our roof also, to get a better view of the city and took... I hesitate to call them "amazing" pictures. My city... it has been punched in the face and is on the canvas being counted out.
And yes, that's smoke you see out of the windows. The city is under a haze from the fires. Smoke and ash are floating miles away from the fires.

Now Frist says he might hearings into the response. This is appropriate and necessary. Let's just hope Our Elected Leaders have the balls to make them honest hearings, and that they don't brook any nonsense. (Well, I can hope, right?)
It's open season on Bush now.
Remains to be seen, though the wind is shifting that direction. However, Bush has the factual timeline on his side, so he can weather this storm. Especially of the hearings are honest.

Frist is incapable of leadership. He's the only one that hasn't realized that is why he'll never be President.

I just heard that, Howlin. This is just pathetic. Frist laying his groundgame for the 2006 GOP nomination... by appeasing Democrats and taking actions like this so the media will "love him".
The ONLY man worth his salt in DC is President Bush.

Now Frist says he might hearings into the response. Hopefully for the sole purpose of identifying where things can be done better for next time this happens.
