Karl Karl Karl, I really wish you'd quit photoshopping these pics. Obviously they were actually beating him before taking him out back and putting him into slavery. ( /sarcasm)
The MSM is so lame.
Texans and FReepers, too.
This civil rights idiot on BO - I am about to scream! Only the blacks are being called refugees? That's what he said! What about the 90 year old white lady and her daughter they just interviewed?! There ARE white people in these crowds. And really - now refugees isn't politically correct? Sheesh!
Understand.
Did he just say 30,000 people still in the convention center?????
Thanks for that link. But some won't see the truth if it bites them in the rear
They haven't given the hollyweird type anything to do but read their scripted notes about how much help is needed.
Thank God.
Harry Connick Jr. talking about his visit to NO, he looks very broken up.
Thank you....this was shown this morning when the good guys arrived. I know I shouldn't be suprised by Geraldo, but just dang.....
Luck Fawrence
I think I'll watch one of the movie channels tonight, this is two much.
(But I'll bet Fox wins the ratings war. BTW, who is reporting from Aruba tonight?)
He's got the buses in his pocket. They sent Jerry out to look for a place to send them.
I watched Geraldo. That Police Chief kept talking about crowd on the brink of riot.
Did you see the crowd? Perfectly peaceful, sickly and exhausted looking. I didn't see any potential riot unless of course it is whipped up.
They convert/manufacture/rebuild those in the O'Gara-Hess & Eisenhardt facility in Ohio. My guess is that they pulled off whatever they could get their hands on and sent it down there as quickly as possible.
That said, the Army is also in the process of Up-Armoring many of the Reserve, Guard, and stateside HMMVWs.
I'm not sure what the heck that had anything to do with the conversation
Thanks again seamole. I think my confusion lies mostly with just WHAT is considered military (bless you every one).
The national guard had already been in NO/LA when Miss Mary gave her speech today threatening the looters.
I've always considered the guard military until I heard her speech & was left w/ the impression that the guard isn't considered military & the army was moving in.
The individual state's national guard IS federal military isn't it?
let's not belittle what happened in manhattan on 9-11. no one knew if other planes were coming, manhattan has millions of people on it, people had to be evacuated, order maintained.
I'm not comparing NO to NYC, all I am saying is that imagine if Rudy and Pataki and the entire government apparatus bugged out.
Yeah, but they never told anyone WHY they were underfunded:
Sierra Club environazis blocked further work.
NO refusal to pay 50% of the grant money (required by law). They wanted the feds to pay 100%.
Funny, every other state understood the terms, as laid out by Congress.
Not at all. It's what I would have done WITH caveat: Those entering the dome were not allowed in with any kinds of weapons (Zero Tolerance); ergo, I'd have found some stick with long nails, and made my way out of NO. Broken glass, some toxic soup in a jug to toss into faces. Oh yeah... I'd a started walking as soon as Katrina had passed over.
