IMHO his job is to report what he sees (in that very small sector he reports from) and not lay blame when he's oblivious to the many who have been rescued throughout the State. Leave it to the skilless Mayor of NO to finger point and pray his days are numbered.

Well then get some hardened reporters in there that go around the city and REPORT what is happening instead of wimpy reporters. I have seen reporters that reported on accidents that knew the people that were critically injured or killed and reported the facts. On the air you never would have known.

One of those reporters talked to my daughter who is in Journalism for over a half an hour about how important it is for a reporter to make sure they stay detached and report the story and NEVER become the story where everyone is talking about the reporter not the event.

I saw it, you said it never happened. I know what you said was false, and spelled out in more detail that I had indeed seen those reports. Once again, you say it never happened. So in effect you've called me a liar. One of us is lying. I'm not. If you want to get all huffy and self-righteous, that's your choice.

No you are hearing him report about the dead bodies at the convention center. He has talked about ONE body on that bridge and he has NEVER said they died before his eyes. Hell he is only there for about 6 hours a day.

I heard from a friend in Michigan, not yet confirmed, that they may be putting them up in Red Cross & Salvation Army shelters.

That's interesting.

Hit the nail on the head.

What has the NAACP done or any other racists black group.

Sorry, Bonnie. My TV isn't near my computer like a lot of others, so I missed it. Gotta change this arrangement or buy a laptop and sit in front of the tube.

At least we wouldn't have to worry about Gregoire going emotional- I don't think the witch has a soul. AND- I am sure she would get a lot accomplished- she would take a long look at the situation and decide...we need new taxes. We would have new cigarette and gas taxes coming right up.

Short term maybe. I don't understand what they will do when the snow flies. Big change between the weather in NO and the weather here in Michigan. They will have to adapt. We golf in the snow here.

Oh don't get me wrong. You phrased it much better than I did. And I'm still trying to catch up on 1000 or so posts, so I was just happy to see someone else was as brilliant as I was!

Interesting. I'd like to see Sheps apologists explain this photo.

Replay of the interview (with Geraldo) going on, and the assertion of "no food/no water" came from the NO Police Officer on the scene (Convention Center).

Whatever. I've had the opportunity to watch a lot of this, and have heard it plenty of times, regardless of how much it shoots down your digs at Shep. It is stupid to be wasting time arguing about it, better to go down tomorrow and volunteer at the shelters.

For those that are concerned:

WFAA - Refugees coming to the Dallas area are being processed at Big Town Mall (usually used as a convention center for gun shows, not a real shopping center) before being sent on to Reunion or their next destination.

There is a large, heavily armed police presence there.

As I said before, we don't tolerate that s*** here.


*****

Those two NO PD deserters (Mayberry brothers) are now in Grand Prairie and giving interviews with WFAA.

Thank you, chuknospam. This needs to be shouted from the rooftops for those who are too deaf to hear the truth. Well done!
