If I said what I really wanted to say, I would be banned! ;-)
Doesn't anyone know why the buses stopped running at the Dome?? The AP articles said they suddenly stopped running, with 2000 left at the dome. How many more people left at the convention center, and on the overpass??
Why can't they get these people out?? They should just move them out by any transport means because otherwise it just feeds the MSM and black politicians' rants that the operation is racist.
I don't know why my post came up blank. I actually did type an answer.
Mike is a light weight and I'm never too impresed with him, but I can handle him better than Julian.
Good morning everyone.
WWLtv just came online.

"Anybody watching Fox and Friends? "
I was for a while, but got disgusted and am watching "Ask This Old House" on A&E -- dip back into F&F every once in a while during commercials, just to see if anything important is happening.
Believe me, as far as "piling on" goes, F&F doesn't hold a candle to Oreilly, H&C, and Greta last nite -- worse than CNN and MSNBC because this strikes me as treason to our cause.
Hope you are right but the MSM has already started the spin that it's the Feds fault.
The reason the buses stopped last night was that the NG needed security from the Louisiana State Police or law enforcement in loading the buses.
But there LSP was awol.
Take a look at last nights scanner reports.
Reasonable people understand that you don't blame the president when the snow plows don't clear your street after the snow!
BINGO!

Thanks. I didn't know. Doesn't the military provide security?? Why do they need the LSP?
Julian was right. It does need to be discussed. He is supposed to be a journalist and a journalist should have a responsibility to get to the truth of a story or public issue. He should have stood up and insisted that they discuss it. He should have pushed them to investigate whether it is a fact that George Bush actually doesn't like black people or that it is a poisonous lie that is spread by an anti-Bush liberal Democratic media. He should have said what he really thinks, instead of cowering behind political correctness. People continue to absorb these lies because they are not challenged. Julian obviously believes that Bush is a rascist, but he doesn't have the balls to stand up and say it, instead choosing to insinuate it and allow the rest of the crew to steer the conversation away in fear. These things have to be confronted or they will persist.
Yep, it would be nice if we were dealing with "reasonable" people - I do not understand for the life of me just how the mayor & gov are getting a free pass. We learned last night that the Red Cross was told not to come to NO. At the time the storm hit, the gov had 6500 NG at her disposal and did not use them.
All politics is local. The people of NO are learning this the hard way.
Governor and Mayor are positions not to take lightly. I fear these peple got what they elected.
Like Doocy said..."Not right now".
for the Gulf Coast needs..why can't they bring in some of the things by amphibious landing from the Navy?
The beach access isn't like trying to navigate the Miss River.
Have you noticed that we have not heard a word from the NO Fire Dept etc - that's where the EMS is located in most towns & cities - where is the Emergency personnel in NO?
