I have no idea why "refugee" is considered inappropriate.

I think that some Americans associate it to third world countries only, definitely not when referring to Americans. They think who would have thought something like this would happen in America. Some but not the majority of Americans.

They think who would have thought that Americans would be refugees on their own soil in America. Some but not the majority of American.

We think who would have thought that terrorist would fly our own planes into buildings in America. Some but not the majority of Americans.

Hey its a new day in America. And Americans are spending time squabbling over words.

Whoda thunk it!!

I think in light of new information, Knapp will be singing a different tune, even I in the beginning thought President Bush messed up, but as we are learning, he is doing the best he can, and he had to fight not only Katrina, but the corrupt Louisiana government.

This all feels good for a lot of people.

Just like a nice pleasant Hollywood marriage between Sean Penn and Madona.

What happens when taking care of the poor and indigent are no longer a Cause Celeb.

You know the race baiter's don't want to take care of these people.

Racists Action Jackson wouldn't even share his water with those poor thirsty refugees during his frequent photo opps

All race baiter's want to do is incite them to the point where they can use them to black mail more money from companies and the government.

You'll love to hear this, Pirro just proposed the suspension of the federal gas tax as part of her platform. She beat Hillary to the punch! LOL, out-hillary hillary indeed.

" Hey, you're right. I just looked at google earth and found Jumbolair. The resolution is real bad, but there's definitely a landing strip."

I wish I knew how to post pictures, but, at the end of this article is a real close picture of Travolta's home and it's awesome.

we have elected officials down, the elites, there talking seccession, threating to punch to President, inciting race riots, cops abandoning their comrades, police looting, etc...

and we wonder why the common folk there have so little regard for authority.

I'm coming to the opinion after a week of this nonsense that any money spent on rebuilding New Orleans is wasted, we should make it a big naval base, national dump or wetland refuge....flame on!

"
They did it in less than a week! And let's not forget that all land operations moved over hurricane ravaged terrain equal in size to the entire country of Great Britain.

This has been one of the most impressive operations in history"

Way to put it! You sparked my memory of the success of the War in Iraq. We kicked their keesters up the Tigris and Euphrates so quick their heads were spinning. It was a totally impressive and successful military operation. The MSM is on the dark side spinning and spinning. Thanks for giving perspective to all.

I went to my sister's house to get away from the coverage for a while.

But we watched for a little bit around 5:00. I looked at Fox and the bottom line read: "Geraldo rescues woman".....

You can imagine my reaction. Geraldo reports not only injects himself into the story. He makes himself the ENTIRE STORY. He can only report the story, as everything has happenned since he flew in 48 hours ago.

***Los Angeles County is refusing to take evacuees.

If so, I imagine that they figure that they have enough of their own home grown problematics.***

Exactly. We here in calfiornia are up to HERE in taking in "refugees", thank you very much. And when I just heard Geraldo chiding Governor Schwarzenegger, saying he hadn't "done his part, that Texas was overshadowing him", I just about lost it.

The Communists in Russia promised "Peace, Land, and Bread" to the poor, and exploited the poor to gain power. Once they had served their purpose, they were tossed into collective farms, and many ultimately starved.

they have some Rudy endorsement ads for Pirro in the can and ready to go - but I hope they delay them one week until this Katrina stuff settles down.

That means something "worse" hasn't happened to take this off the front pages...if you know what I mean.

Thousands will soon be living large on three Carnival cruise ships. In complete luxury, with meals and spa. We'll see if the rapes and murders continue, and if the MSM will report them.
