They were told to come to the SD with five days worth of food and water. Like get real. How many people can pack 5 days worth of water?

"Did anyone just see the look on Hillary's face?? I swear, I have NEVER seen anything like it. Ever. Extreme anger."

No I didn't, why was she angry? Or I should ask, is she ever happy?

One of the Fox guys showed a black man whose legs (calves) were badly swollen from something in the water. They also spoke of one guy who got a chemical burn from being in the water.

Oh sink..can you imagine Nagin complaining to her about the very thing I THINK he was responsible for? He knew how to defuse blame and she let him.

"Can you imagine, they had NO Electricity?"

Yes, you IDIOTS...we told you it would happen.

Enough!

The San Francisco Earthquake should not have happened.
Mount St Helens should not have happened.
The Johnstown Flood should not have happened.
Gigli should not have happened.

The female asian reporter for Oprah just said if Katrina had happened in (more race baiting) an affluent "white" neighborhood so much death wouldn't have occurred.

Well Duh, because they would have EVACUATED BEFORE A CAT 4 HURRICANE HIT LAND! THEY WOULD'VE POLICED EACH OTHER AND NOT RAPED AND MURDER CHILDREN IN PLAIN VIEW.

I know, delusion and denials run rampant among liberals.

Now another Oprah flunky said, "you could never "imagine" this happening to N.O."
Odd, considering it's been imagined, talked about, modeled for decades.

These media Liberals are truly out of the loop of life.

Didn't I also read that the levee that was expected to break didn't and it was one that was not expected to break that did? (Boy, that's a terrible sentence).

Also, there was an article on FR today that said strengthening of the levees was to be completed in 2013. I see they had a sense of urgency :-)

What can you do? I mean, sometimes I just want to throw up my hands. Is this what our public schools are cranking out?

Did y'all catch that Democrats want an investigation into where the FEDERAL rescue efforts went wrong?

Not where the entire matter went wrong which would include the city and state.

I hope Frist is smarter than to fall for the federal only investigation.

I am not going to ask if you are kidding about what Nagin said...I know you aren't ... and I also know that Nagin is a moron.

What was the response when he asked "Can you imagine living there?" Was Oprah sufficiently sympathetic...

Or do WE need to send sympathy cards to this idiot!!!????

I turned Oprahs worthless show off. She and her hand ringing posse won't roll up their sleeves to help with relief efforts, only if it involves picking out new paisely print wallpaper. So much for her Angel Network. Blah... media duds

Get this, I heard on Ankarlo here in Dallas that it actually was the environment whackos that halted the upgrade of the levees to withstand a Cat 5 hurricane.


Add Katrina to the deaths attributed to enviro-whackos along with the deaths from banning DDT.
