Then why build a dyke? Just sink some barges. Easy Peezy.
Exactly. Why do I think no member of the CBC has a single displaced resident of the NO Ninth Ward living in their homes right now?
15% public transportation in NO.
The building in Akron that housed the blimp used to create it's own weather also. Clouds and rain. No one ever believed me when I told them that tidbit.
Thanks for the confirmation.
its not that simple, and Im kinda ticked that people keep saying this. Its a narow canal...not the lake and not the river. its not wide and if the barge, which you cant steer, goes off course and takes out more chunks of the wall then it only gets that much worse.
maybe they can drop cars into the hole to clow it enought o fill the rest with sandbags.
Water is a pretty mean adversary when you try to corral it up like a horse.
Best get it right the first time.
It doesn't take many walls of water to drop high rise buildings into their basements.
If you don't believe it, ask anyone from Gulfport, Mississippi.
Humidity just hung in the air that day -- it was terrible but the game was good.
Brother, you are on a roll like I've never seen . . .
CLUB GITMO!!!
Your hitting on all cylinders on your posts.
Hey, (not)millionnaire! Howsya!?!
Maybe they'll be shamed into pitching in.
I did see a couple & the man said he was ready to go to CA.
Then went on to reveal how unprepared they were for this 'big blow' (w/ days warning).
I've lived in CA there's NO warnings about the 'big shakes'.
As a NYer, and even though this is liberal lala land, it is composed of the useful idiots (i.e. limosine liberals)... not so much the "liberal exploited" as you see in New Orleans.
I am shocked at the poverty down there and the total lack of personal responsibility on the part of people. Sure NY has poverty problems but NY's "ghettos" are in the past 10 years or so overwhelmingly populated by hard-working latin america/carribean immigrants.
We are finally seeing the truth- that LBJ ruined generations of people.
Next time I turn on MSNBC and watch Joe Scarborough's show
Please smack me up side my STUPID head
Go to hell Joe!

Great! It's only blocks from the Capitol:

The Congressional Black Caucus can go down there and take care of them!
Right now the water is flowing out.
Corps may soon blow many more levee holes.
The whole thing would drain even faster if they would blow out "bayou savage".
Sending these people to DC is worse than leaving them in NOLA....
You are doing a superb job with these threads. Thank you
Ditto, even though i continue to argue with you ;)
