Yes, we all would love some first person accounts.

[Peach]

Exactly. Distracted - listening to Judge Bork on FNC. They're going to commercial now.

[Soul Seeker]

Tammy Bruce- Voted for social entitlements to keep coming, ultimately doomed them.

So true. Should have looked for a real leader, not a party ID.

Hitting the Truth that welfare inner city is gone, and these people may have a real chance for a good life now absent that environment, those that aren't dead.

[ChadGore]

This NG member died trying to get there early. He's a hero.

We need to find out all that can be known about a guy named Josh E. Russell of MS.

This from:
http://www.clarionledger.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050905/NEWS0110/50905021/1260
"

• Josh E. Russell had spent a tour in Iraq, then switched to the National Guard from the Marine Corps so he could spend more time at home. The 27-year-old was killed when the Humvee he was riding in hit debris on a highway in Pearl River County, Miss.
  
  Russell was nervous about being called into action, sent into the teeth of the hurricane, said his widow, Jamie Russell.
  
  "He didn't want to go, because he knew it was going to be a bad storm. But he went, because that was his duty," she said.
  

[Seattle Conservative]

Yep, read it on FR earlier. In addition she (Hill) and Osamama Obama were in Houston today w GWHB and Bubba - wasn't quite sure while either one was there, except for grandstanding. Hill was out doing a meet and greet (pic on here earlier - the child didn't look happy) and apparently, so was Obama - just saw him next to Bubba's side doing a console, meet and greet. Looks like they're planning a Hillary/Obama ticket in '08.

[WoodstockCat]

Bubba:"That save the levy plan was in the same folder where I told W that Osama Bin Ladin should be his number 1 priority".

[Peach]

Yup. That's what he said at today's press conference.

I have GOT to write out my husband's card...tomorrow is our 25th wedding anniversary. bbl

[bonfire]

Can't remember what news station I heard this from: Money was allocated for the levies but the mayor/gov turned it down as the feds wouldn't pay 100%.
Paraphrased, but I heard that in the last few days.

[Types_with_Fist]

Good -- very good -- to hear from you.

[NautiNurse]

He already tipped his hand earlier today.

[mystery-ak]

Mike isn't driving..travel is courtesy of the ILNG...

[publana]

Fantastic! So that leaves how much to go for disaster relief after administrative fees?

I hope somebody stays on top of the Red Cross. Otherwise, I fear not much will be done with that money.

[buckandbuck1]

I bet he even pardoned a couple of false accused levee engineers. How have we survived without him???

[tomkat]

ditto, young lady
    <big grin>

[Miss Behave]

TexKat, Cankles looks like manure on rye. That pic of her on Druge almost brought my dinner back up. DANG.

Her Hagness.

[fishntex]

Amen.

[SE Mom]

Godspeed, soldier.

[Miss Behave]

And TexKat, your son was so AWESOME in his report/pics of his Purple Heart pinning. Thank you for birthing him. :-)

[maica]

Tomorrow is a huge day. The local conservative radio talk show hosts return, and they will start getting the truth out.

%%%%

Two local conservative hosts tonight in Baltimore (separate stations) are firmly on board with the views expressed on this thread! Thank God! So the rebuttal to the Inside the Beltway crowds has already begun.

[TheSpottedOwl]

Read the whole thing. It doesn't surprise me : (

Thank you for posting this.
