You can't see it in the pictures posted here, but It really looked more obvious from some video they ran about an hour ago.

They really need to use concretee to build these levee's.

I keep having people tell me about how the federal government failed to strengthen these levee's. (It is all Bush's fault...blah blah!)My response is that it is the reponsiblity of NO and LA to build there own levees if they want to live there. IMHO.

I watched the FoxNews live footage, but it was looking at the flow from the backside.

Here is a picture of the repair "pre-overtopping. The top look like something other than earthen - and if the entire repair is earthen, then it'll wash down to flush is a matter of a few hours. There is lots of water going over, and plenty of volume if Lake Pontchartrain to keep flowing for hours more.
