I am slow to respond to this but I had cancer surgery on friday morning. It was supposed to be a small 30 mi operation but lasted 21/2 hrs. They have my left eye sewn shut and had to take one of the grafts from my right eye. Just a minor glitch and I will recover. The building where Condi was in Bayou La Batre is where we had our 40th highschool reunion in 2001. That is where I was born and raised. I built a new house last year and am going to try and take in a goodd size family from there or Miss or La. As soon as I am able to drive.LOL Pardon the mistakes but I am typing with one finger and a partial right eye.

Isn't that a horrendous message from that cop? I just love how the media haven't reported how bad the rapes and murders have been.

Too busy pointing fingers to report actual news.

If it was Bill or Hillary in charge, the liberal media would be praising their efforts even if federal aid came to NO one month after Katrina hit.

The liberal media and the Democrats are joined at the hip.

Too early to get alarmed about anything.

I'm afraid Katrina has spawned a multitude of tropical storm alarmists. Good heavens, there was a thread posted today for a low pressure system. Those of us who follow the storms because our lives and property depend upon it are still watching the weather as always. If a system develops, it will not be overlooked. However, there is no need to be alarmed for every tropical wave that forms out there.

Oh thank you. She is on my mind a lot. The last storm she was so depressed, and trying to help her husband too. I hope that both are getting better.

Thank God for Condi.

Absolutely! BTW, just as a purely trivial aside (thereby confirming men's opinion of us...), I received a catalog this weekend from Talbot's that had a model on the front who was the spittin image of Condi, wearing an incredibly sharp looking "power outfit" ala Condi. Remember the white coat and the stiletto heel boots she wore in Europe? I think Condi's going to be the new model for us all...

I actually saw Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC on Friday say the president did nothing to prepare for the hurricane.


Amazing! What exactly are the job descriptions of Blanco and Nagin if Bush is solely responsible for state preparations for natural disasters?

Damn.

THE NOPD who stayed and fought the vermin sure arent getting much media air time.

Jeffers have you read # 1684?

I know you had some estimates on the possible death toll earler, but I was wondering if you think 60k is possible.

Haley Barbour has defended the President. he has even defended FEMA. Yeah, the D.C. elites are gutless, we knew that. But the Governors in MISS, Alabama, Taxes and so on have been solid. So the Prez has a few stand up people in the Party. Would be nice if they were the Majority, I agree.

Jefferson Parish EOC guy on WWL talking about the traffic jams heading into the Parish they opened...says everyone will move back to the area in a little while.

Says every time they energize a block, there is a house fire or two.

Still blaming Bush...

Christiane is boots on the ground in N.O. (was she on vacation? What took her so long?). Now the REAL reporting can begin!

Don't underestimate Blanco.

Would the public persona she exhibits have made it to the top of Al Capone's regime?

What you see is a facade.

Look deeper.

What does it mean to federalize the National Guard?

Command is ceded or given to the Federal government, instead of where in normally resides, in the state govenment.
