All Katrina, All the time......
I'm stunned CBS remembered that Mississippi was hit by Katrina as well.
Possibly Steve Centanni on foxnews sunday!
All Katrina, all the time. Pass.
No way will I watch the media continue with their spins and lies on this story. Once was quite enough.
One would think the other shows would try to get him on too but I doubt they want to take time away from bashing Bush over Katrina.
Katrina all over, this sunday. Will the MSM ever admit their Mis-reporting of the incidents & lessons learned on their part? Just this morning, ShepHez Smith shamed himself again while commenting on the kidnapping incident.
I am tired of all the Katrina-hype & taking off for a bit of DIY-decorating project. Ofcourse, I will post my Media Nuggets in a while and then off for this week.
Morning AB!
Move-on's Tom Matzzie is on c-span Washington Journal & it's only 75% Katrina so far>
NOLA... and the Bush/Rove Hurricane-Machine!
The worst of the worst is nbc...they are known by many as the katrina station....if there is a story...they exagerate it, corrupt it and of course blame Bush...if there is no story...they will manufacture one...and then... exagerate it, corrupt it and of course blame Bush...most of the other alphabets take there leads form nbc...except maybe cnn...where they take them from aljezeera!...just think...lebanon good and Israel bad..is just yesterday's news from all the anit-american anti-semitic new stations...only the 1 year anniversary of the katrina catastrophe in the "chocolcate city" is news!!!!
Tom Matzzie speaks like an idiot, in the few minutes that I have been listening to him.
Steve: Is race an issue in the Tennessee senatorial race?
TM: I have not been followint the races too closely, but race has become an issue in Virginia.
Steve: But Harold Ford is African-American...
TM: Blahblahblab....
You don't REALLY believe that Katrina hit Mississippi do you? Don't you know that the Cheney/Bush/Rumsfeld/Halliburton hurricane machine (patent pending) directed Katrina to only strike New Orleans.
Amazing how a storm that large could only concentrate it's destructive power on just New Orleans and leave the surrounding area completely undamaged. /s
I can't possibly talk all day about Katrina so I dug up a few other things we might want to get into.
Let the games begin!
He is the only move-on person I've ever seen & reminds me of a pre diet Jerry Nadler.

Not long ago Christopher Hitchens was a member of a panel being interviewed by HBO's Bill Maher(what Ann Coulter ever saw in him I haven't a clue). Another panel member was former womanizer and rat election loser Max Cleland (Rat,GA.) who spends his miserable hours these days trying to help John Murtha from being "swiftboated".
Anyway the show begins and rapidly turns into a Bush bashing fest with the audience chiming in as well. After enduring several "F" words and other slurs from the audience, at 8:30 into the eleven minute video provided on the malcontent blog, Chris Hitchens turns to the audience and gives the single finger salute. Priceless!! Not only does he do it once but a couple of minutes later salutes them again! Message to rat audience:"don't mess with Hitchens."
This guy is fearless and Maher seemed to realize that he and the pathetic panel had met their match.
This is must see video and you can find it at.
