Darn right. He is not just pounding his fists on the podium and pointing fingers.
see my #3491.
Glad you beat me to it LOL!
How I wish you were all here to have a drink with me. Mr. Peach has never seen me drunk, but today just might be a first.
CORRECTION cat 3 not 4
"where levee broke is as good as it was going to get [in terms of being built]
it was rated for cat *3*
[but] intensity of storm exceeded capacity of levee
so next question [we are asked] why cat 3 and not 4 or 5
corps answer, we knew the [*3*] capacity of this levee, and that is why mayor others evacuated the city
had they not done that, loss would have been much greater
also, war in Iraq has NOT impacted corp funding levels"
Funny you should mention that, I saw the interview and thought the same thing, LOL. That was very strange.
BTW, I am frankly getting very tired of OReilly and his attitude during this whole crisis. I am not am OReilly fan, but do watch him. However, this week he is worst than usual, IMO. He is short with people, cutting them off, and his arrogant, condescending attitude has become so bad I have stopped watching him.

Russell Crowe may be a jerk, but he said something great. He's tired of all of the celebrity relief efforts, they should just right the check or volunteer and shut the hell up about it.
The Black Caucus is trying to deal with a politically very uncomfortable (for them) issue, in that by far the worst actors in this whole mess are looters who are almost all black people.
Part of it is a legitimate concern that this fact will spread to an incorrect assumption that "all black people" are potential looters. So I'll give them slack on that point.
However, the fact of the matter is that the Black Caucus itself must shoulder a lot of the blame for the fact that these looters are overwhelmingly black, inner-city thugs. The policies, recommendations, and years of poverty pimping by the Black Caucus and their politicl allies have been a major factor in the development of the psychotic culture that pervades the inner city.
They simply cannot afford to have an honest discussion of why it is that the looters are predominantly black. It would destroy their political position.
Might as well not dilute it with tomato juice, either.
People that only had one television set need to impeach the person elected to control the remote.
Everyone here is saying that,,"what is it we dont know,,something here we don't know"
What on earth could that be.
Screaming just on command channel scanner . . .
Ahahaha! ROFL.
Were these buses parked here when then could have been used to evacuate BEFORE Katrina hit too?
I think Bush placed his trust in some incompetent jerks.

FNC just reported that help is on the way.
Finally!
Sounded like a scuffle . . . did not sound good . . . angry voices . . .
A lot of Democrats are now talking religion. Wonder what ACLU thinks of that.
