CNN? I must be dreaming. Of course, they are putting their own spin on it. "Logistic" difficulties was the State officals telling the Red Cross they wanted the people OUT so they were NOT allowing food and water IN. It wasn't logistics it was policy. STATE OFFICALS cause the Race Baiters on the Hate-filled Left are trying REAL hard to ignore the fact that it was Louisana Department of Homeland Security officals by just saying "Homeland Security" in the hope people will think it was the Feds.
And now there is no way the Governot and Mayor will let the Red Cross anywhere near the area. At this point the gloves are off in NO. Some pretty nasty things are happening to the gang thugs that are left there. Many will just disappear. No way will the Mayor and Governot let the Red Cross in there to report back on what it is taking for the NOPD and National Guard to reclaim this city.
You're right. CNN glossed over and spun the fact that it was the policy not to let the Red Cross in with food, water, and supplies. Notice that the Superdome /Convention Center fiasco is not mentioned. Those people could have had water and food but it was policy not to do so for fear that more people would come to the Dome/ Covention Center. Of course, all blame Bush for this, right?
CNN realizes it has hit the fan, and must do their best spin to attempt to preserve the illusion that this is the fed's fault. It'll work for the dolts who watch nothing else, and do little to portray truth.
On the upside, the sleeping socialists have awakened. It's a good sign that this is brought to the front, even if they continue to distort to suit their anti-Bush agenda. There are truth seekers around, and the majority of Americans haven't lost their sense of smell.
Bush diddled while Blacks died. Logistics stopped corrupt LA officials from saving poor African American lives. Gotcha MSM, makes real good sense to me. SARCASM at high alert level, maybe into overload capacity even.\
American MSM are the most corrupt SOB's in the world.
