It may not necessarily true about Jindal -- remember it was a reporter who gave his own characterization to Jindal's words.

Just heard state of emergency declared for Texas by President, does anyone know what exactly that means, I live in Texas so I am curious how this might effect me.

I'd like to have a .wav file of Honore shouting "that's BS". I can relly think of the times I could use that.

Short note to MSM and Fox.

Dear MSM
Bill O'Reilly probably needs to have a short but to the point discussion with General Honore. Then maybe Bill will shut up his obnoxious criticisms. Goes for Joe Scarborough as well.

Thank God for Honore. Really nice for some one to tell the press that their questions are way out of line. It's had to believe that reporters are so damn stupid.

Honore for President anyone?

My timing, however...stank!!!!

"Then he said, if anybody wants to take it up with Barbara, you better put on a flak jacket."

I would SO love to have been a fly on the wall in Barbara Bush's living room for the past week.

The cream shall rise to the top.

I see a General George C. Marshall here with a mix of Patton figured in.

I predict a fourth star in the General's near future.

I for-damn-sure hope so.

I'm proud of his refusal to suffer fools and their weepy handwringing BS.

The DUmmies are livid. LOL

I thought the comment was one that John Dingle of Michigan made about the effort of first responders.

Got it, your're right, because it would have dug in when the tail rotor blades touched. Then the torque, combined with the pinning effect of the tail rotor blades (even instantaneus contact)could have pivoted the whole fuselage while the tail remained stationary.

After it rolled and came to rest, it could lift the tail clear, making the point of contact directly below it, and therefore hard to see from the air.

Yup...so....

Why the power loss?

If it was simple mechanical failure, wouldn't the pilot's report have made the news by now?

If he had landed on that incline in soggy soil and then tried to lift off, he set himself up for a classic rollover. If he gave it power to get out of the muck instead of setting back down, it'll go sideways everytime.
