>>He said he wanted to give water to those asking for water, and it was tough, but hey, it was a matter of survival [meaning, he kept his water].<<

What uter BS.
Get any FOX traffic helicopter from any station within 100 miles and airdrop some water. Who is going to stop them?

Did you see NBC tonight? Harry Coniff Jr. (God bless him for the concert deal) telling the story of standing with hundreds of thirsty people.
He said, "I'll see what I can do, I'm only a singer."

A SINGER WITH A FRIKIN TOUR BUS AN $$$$ TO BUY WATER.
Stop talking to Brian Williams, get in your bus, drive to the nearest Walmart with water, even if it's a hundred miles away and get these people some damn water.

If the newsreporters can make it in, they can make it in with supplies.
Sean Hannity was the only one I have heard DOING anything. Those performers who did the last concert at Six Flags have donated their tour buses and water to go in them, They are heading down now.

I wish these people would get off their high horse, stop being horrified and do something.

I share your frustration, but it just isn't feasible for people to get water and drive to New Orleans with it. I'm only 200 miles away, but I have barely enough gas to get to work tomorrow. And I had to siphon that out of my sister's husband's car.

Isn't that maddening...instead of the cable news reporters ramming their microphones into peoples faces...wouldn't it be something to see them offer a tall cup of water and a P&J sandwich to several thousand people.

Oh...they can't share their meager rations with the suffering masses? Then get their sorry news crew butts out of there.
