What is a shame is the one-sided, bias coverage the press is giving this disaster. The press is using this tragidy to exploit minorities and the poor. Everybody in New Orleans lost everything, not just the poor. There are people trapped there from all economic classes. Not just the poor. But that isn't what we hear from the press. We hear the same old lines coming from the press that we've been hearing for along time. We are hearing lines of exploitation, but we must remember,,, it is all Bush's fault.

How the hell do they think they are ever going to win another election with that strategy. All they can think about is "getting" Bush. This is disaster is just another opportunity for the left to show who they really are.

They complain about one-party control and totalitarianism in the U.S. Hell, they are handing it to us on a silver platter.

Some of the black talking heads that have been popping up on TV seem to have their anger divided between Bush and the MSM. A particular thorn had been the use of the word refugee.

I first heard the word used on CNN. I thought, at the time, that some PC jerk at CNN thought it would have a visceral impact, making greater victims of the victims. Many in the black community are also upset about the coverage of the looting. It seems to be backfiring on the media. I notice that when a black individual starts a rant about the media, CNN usually, conveniently, cuts away for breaking news.
