9 P.M. EDT.

EXACTLY! The left thinks it's LBJ and FDR...but they have yet to read the conservative principles underlying his plan.

Also- a little publicized fact I read today- he has consulted and picked the brains of all the conservative think tanks and faith-based folks in getting this plan hammered out.

[netmilsmom]

>>but my heart will always be in Ohio<<

Well Ohio is the Heart of it all.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Very good and uplifting speech, as always.

[Republic]

That is EXACTLY what I heard. I LOVE THIS GOOD MAN and his administration!

[MikefromOhio]

well he doesn't imbibe because I think he has found his faith in the Lord and his faith tells him not to drink.

Personally, I drink. Not to excess (like some of my Catholic relatives do), but a shot, or a brew or two is good by me.

[WestVirginiaRebel]

It's the Pat Buchanan Effect. Anybody who comes into contact with it hears only what they want to hear.

Look below:




I

am

not

interested.

[don-o]

But the sillier thing is to actually have expected that W was going to go on TV tonight and tell the Gulf states that they were cut off from any more federal money,

Course not. I question why he felt the need to make the speech. Can anyone help me with that?

[nascaryankee]

The amount of expenditure W is proposing will bankrupt this nation.

I don't think so. But, I would like to see him go back to D.C. and tell Congress to give up the pork. This money is better spent to rebuild a region than to build a bridge to nowhere.

[Admin Moderator]

Knock it off.

[Howlin]

I can't figure that out.

Do they just hope the Gulf of Mexico will swamp it?

[mercy]

Stuff it newb.

[Knitting A Conundrum]

Evidently there's a lot of "I got mine, it didn't happen to me, so screw you" people floating around right now....which is sad.

It's our way to help our fellows when a disaster hits. If disaster happened to LA, we would be doing this. If disaster happened to Dallas, we would be doing this. Even if it happened to Newark or Paducah or Missoula.

We've never had such disaster in a key American city in a long time - and certainly not one in a city that was the third largest port in the world, gateway to the center of the US, and area so important in the petrochem business.

This disaster, whether you want to believe it or not, affects probably all Americans, and more directly than we might realize.

It's important.

I can't watch CNN or my throat will swell shut and I will die.

ROTFLMBO!!!!

PLEASE, don't watch CNN!!!

The first step should be to bulldoze the haven of booze and sexual depravity of every persuasion, Bourbon Street. "Southern Decadence," indeed.

If you don't like Bourbon Street, don't go there. There are plenty of other streets in the Quarter.

Please, God. No preaching!!!

Jmouse007 aka minister/biblical scholar said:
"Bend over folks and prepare to grab your ankles, it is "pander to the poor, screaming black folks" time........" and then spewed some more

You ask : "Could it be Reverand Al or Jessee?"

Actually, I don't think I've ever heard those two reverands use this language have you?

I can't imagine listening to that coming from a "minister" devoted to Christ ?!.

[Conservative Firster]

Peas in a pod

[defconw]

I was in 7th grade I think when Kucinich was elected Mayor, like 1977 or 78, be beat Ed Feighen? Bells? Muny Light? Default?

[Howlin]

I think it is time we had an investigation into the MSM's part in the HYSTERIA in this country concerning Katrina and New Orleans.

[paulat]

Dick Morris thinks Bush did a fabulous job. Thinks he'll be greater than ever. Even Alan Colmes is impressed. Must be all the spending!!! Watch how many libs now accuse Bush of pandering to the black vote!! Ha!!

You have summed it up PERFECTLY!!! Rush is right! Never try to make them "like" you, because they never will!

In the meantime...don't pour money into a city below sea-level....
