Did any of you guys see some actor on FOX News a short while ago? He said something to the effect that one of his family members had seen an empty barge hit one of the levees, and that's why it broke. If this is what happened, it really puts to rest some of the criticisms on this issue.

Got that one, thanks. Different fire. That's a campfire in comparison.

So CNN's sticking with Sunday, not Thursday? That report was from Monday. Did CNN claim Thursday tonight?

I have felt slightly ill to my stomach all week, just in feeling what others have gone through, are going through. Not anger. Not even anger at the MSM, and the usual lib-dem games. Naw. Just hurting for a lot of people.

Yeah. I really can relate to what you are feeling. And yeah, I've never felt that "I told you so" feeling, either, going back through my own memorylane photobook of events in my life. It all just stiffens my spine and makes me want to work even harder to help my neighbor Americans see what freedom, civility, and brotherly love really means.

well think about it. Louisiana just lost a large part of its tax base. Essentially, the entire state is now a ward of the federal government - not just for the disaster relief, for other state functions as well. So Blanco hires Witt, with what money? Federal money.

I saw that too. Nothing would surprise me at this point.

Whore-aldo thinks the Berlin Airlift was executed during the Kennedy Administration?



LOL!

Clean burning coal - as I recall, the largest supply in the world next to the one in Indonesia. As I also recall, Bubba made the US supply in Utah a Fed protected area (Nat'l park or some such - I forget the exact wording) and the one in Indonesia is/was owned by the Lippo Group (his friends and donors)

Sometimes appearances are what they appear to be. Look at Newt's history. Look at his weaknesses. These are all on record. These statements do not contradict the persona he has developed for himself that actually played to his loss of power in D.C.

Unless you've evidence to the contrary, I can only move on his own actions and words. As well as my instincts. And Newt has always set them off. I've learned to trust that initial assessment, it's rare I have it but always correct.

For those too young to remember, the Berlin Airlift happened in 1947, during the Truman administration





Make that June 1948.

The Clinton stain is all over the hiring of Witt

Is it ever. Check out this link:

Clark, Slater working for crisis management firm of ex-FEMA director Witt

That's Weasley Clark the article refers to.

Oh, that's nice. Don't worry, I'm sure that some enterprising gangbangers are hiding and waiting for those gas trucks to get drained. The thieves will then be robbed, and sport third eyes. Such is the law of the jungle.

Agreed. It doesn't matter what the MSM says right now. Politics are out the door. No left and right in this one. This thing is bigger than the best informed of us even realize right now I think.

Perhaps.

But it's not something I've been motivated to learn. Perhaps I will, but if not and in a situation where it would have been useful I can assure you I won't be numbered on some news outlet blaming others for the consequences.
