regarding the "blame game" - the dye is already cast on that, the MSM is moving in lock step with a predicatable attack. if tommorrow, every evacuee from NO was put up at a Marriott, it wouldn't make a difference. Once the media gets on a track like that, they simply craft and manipulate the news to fit the agenda. Notice how today, the reports about looters, and snipers shooting buses, choppers, boat rescue teams - are absent. When the Red Cross representative mentioned it to Jesse Jackson on Larry King, they all fell silent and moved on. It doesn't fit the agenda to show people that some component of NOs own residents are responsible for the problems.
Its best just to examine facts on the ground and take it as it comes; some good, some bad.
the political counter attack is going to have to be led by talk radio - it started today.
Bortz had a great rant. Check it out on his website.
Notice my tag line. I have always said this.
