I agree, yes, BUT why can't they show the Rally for 15mins? The puppy story took precedents over the Troop rally...sad! Katrina is taking it's time, the rally happening NOW. All we ask is for some fair play, that's all.
Anyone down there who's not already gone or in the process of leaving is likely stockin' up on bourbon and beer for a hurricane party.
Your concern is commendable, but meanwhile an opportunity is being squandered (or purposely ignored) to raise the morale of our troops and the 100,000,000 people in the country who have to listen to nonstop media diarrhea every other damned day of the year.
If I lived in New Orleans I'd be either on my way out or listening to LOCAL news or THE WEATHER CHANNEL?
Cover the hurricane, yes...absolutely, but I don't need directions out of New Orleans as I sit here in WV.
