I wonder if Oprah is grateful for the Texas response. She wasn't too fond of Texas a few years ago.

Good news...just a little while ago I got back from a labor day get together at my sisters house. My sister is a pretty big lib, head of her local postal union, the whole nine yards.

We started to talk about the flood and I was amazed that not once did she start in about how it was Bush's fault. Pretty much her whole deal was about how dangerous it became so quickly and how fast order broke down. Her husband (a lib by osmosis from my sister) did mention that Bush should have sent troops there faster, but my wife and I countered very quickly that the governor of Louisiania was responsible for sending in Louisiana troops and that she had 30,000 troops at her disposal. We also mentioned that she didn't call for troops from other states until Wednesday. There was no argument.

Anyways I found it very encouraging because despite the MSM's constant drumbeat of "it's Bush's fault" their message isn't taking. People, including many libs, can see right through it.

Not sure about that- earlier I read Harry Reid was saying there will be one.

We were just watching "History Detectives" on PBS, and you won't believe what we saw. For one of the stories they went to visit a relative of some famous broadway dancer from the 1920s or so. And guess where this relative lived? In Slidell, LA. They showed the history detectives driving down streets in Slidell and talking to this relative in her home. (Obviously this was taped before the hurricane.)

Weird.

I noticed that she went to Houston but stayed clear of Amarillo.
About as far as you can get and still stay in Texas.

Great article. Most Americans agree with what this article is saying but as I said before they will not express it publicly or to the pollsters so liberals, their defeated media and other political pundits (including some conservatives) are terribly mistaken if they think that majority of people will be blaming President Bush for this even if they create all the biased polls that show that President Bush is to be blamed.

I have been wondering about the school buses...were they flooded to the engines?

I used to work in an automobile claims office at an insurance company, and whenever we had flooding, we had to total out the cars that got flooded..

The claims adjusters told me that once they got wet up into the dashboard area, they just can't be fixed...dunno?

It depends on how long the vehicle was in the water and the depth.

God shine upon brave warrior Josh Russell of Mississippi. May he rest in eternal peace. I thank him so much for his extensive service to our country and for what was to unfold as his ultimate sacrifice. I pray for his family and friends, and thank them for their sacrifice of thier son, brother, friend.... Lord comfort them.
