Emergency management officials not only wouldn't speculate on how many died when a 30-foot wall of water swept into the Gulfport-Biloxi area, they repeatedly refused to say how many bodies had been recovered.

"Our preparation area is just overwhelmed," said Tommy Franklin, manager of the Riemann Funeral Home, where the remains are being stored. Refrigerated trucks were on the way, he said.

WHY?

Exactly. Especially when the MSM has such an opportunity for a big blame-Bush moment to kick off the 2006 Dim candidates.

There really does seem to be a strange media silence that has developed here. There is no doubt that considerable numbers of bodies, whether hundreds or thousands, have been recovered by now. And yet the media reports as little as possible.

I can't see the payoff for them, given their known agenda and well-established patterns of biased reporting.
