I have to leave for awhile....but I just wanted to mention that I have been watching Fox this morning...
It is a LIVE "cost of freedom", with Neil Cavuto...he had on Jesse Jackson and Jackson says he has a bunch of full tractor trailers heading for Miss. with supplies, but he still refuses to let Neil or anyone say that part of the "lack of help" was in any way Nagins or Blanco's fault.
He said that Nagin couldn't take those buses and fill them with people before the hurricane, GET THIS, because as a mayor he only has jurisdiction over the city of NO...so he COULDN'T take the buses past the city limits of NO...LOLOL!!! What a putz...
He also had on Geraldo----who is still insisting that after Tuesday..the day of flooding...that Bush and all KNEW of all of the people in the CONVENTION CENTER, and did nothing...or the Red Cross.
Now, I may be wrong, but I bet if we went back over the threads of Katrina....Geraldo didn't even go to NO until like Thurs or Friday.. so first of all he doesn't know what happened on WEd...and second, NO ONE knew there were people in the Convention Center until the end of the week...
And, both Jackson and Geraldo keep saying that the Red Cross and others didn't get in....they still don't say that they weren't LET IN by the LA Homeland Sec. dept...
Will get back later....
Watch out for Ophelia, Howlin!
BTW, Geraldo is wrong. He arrived on Thursday and went to the Convention Center that afternoon. Steve Harrigan had been there Wednesday afternoon and Thursday morning.
HOWEVER, whether they knew about it on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday in Washington is neither here nor there since without legal authority to go in Washington could only watch with the rest of us.
