Has anyone heard from the Freeper who had a friend that was going to fly onto the levee and rescue his Fatherinlaw?

30,000 people is what he is saying, but he is also saying it's 6 days after the storm...I am tired of hearing how help wasn't there on time. Katrina hit Monday, even the media said they dodged the bullet. Floods hit Tuesday! This morning (Friday) caravans of help were coming in. Not enough credit is being given to these organizations coming in to help

Did you notice that the Whorealdo spectacle was filmed in the daylight. It's dark now. Wasn't even life!

That convention center is ready to explode. I'd hate to be there after dark tonight.

You know, I have been one to criticize O'Reilly in the past for taping his show and not responding to breaking news. That Geraldo segment was the most riduculous thing I think I've seen. Geraldo is in so far over his head, he thought that 1 helicopter could rescue 30,000 people at the convention center.

If there is a riot there, that Police captain will be one who is at fault for inciting it. He and Geraldo.

Irresponsible producing O'R

Sounds like Oreilly is trying to help orchestrate evacuations.

Reporting location and how many people, and their conditions, is actually a service thatteh media should have been providing in lieu of fomenting second-guessing.

You mean the Anderson Snow CNN interview?

If so, Lott sounded good, held his own, and then some.

Did you catch how AS started the interview:

There is *nothing* happening in Waveland per Anderson.

Later, when Lott [who lost his house in Pascagoula] says that volunteers with a tractor and a bob cat showed up from Florida, cleaning a street, helping later a lady out of her home, etc. That's who's helping.

Anderson concluded with, yes, that's happening on every block in Waveland, too.

No kidding! I'm beginning to wonder too if ANYONE left.
I'm also beginning to feel differently than I did at the beginning of all this. Now I'm p.o'd at the idiots that stayed and now are screaming about no rescue.

It wouldn't be dark in N.O. It's not dark in Ohio. Just getting that way.
