Don't want to post this on the thread...

The Baton Rouge River Center
220 St. Louis Street
Baton Rouge, LA 70801
(225) 761-8400

Clearly mark the contents of the box, and Hurricane Relief

They are overwhelmed with refugees at this time. Here's a clip from an article...

"Monsour said he is especially concerned about the River Center, which has been near or over its capacity of 5,000 since it opened to evacuees Tuesday. City-parish officials opened the River Center to allow schools that were being used as shelters to prepare to reopen."

Personal attacks are frowned upon on this site. However, I will respond personally. If you care to peruse some of my postings, you will find that I am not PC. (the handcuff thing is a personal preference:)) Fortunately we are all free to say what we want. Love, compassion, and a respect for dignity do not make a man weak or politically correct. Bigotry, hatred, and contempt weaken men and societies; leading to the ultimate failure of both. IMHO.

She is like Howard Hughes now couped up in that Las Vegas Hotel. She couldnt leave the hotel to perform at Live 8. A billionaire recluse.

sadly Laura starts some pretty harsh treatment for her breast cancer next week. I wouldn't expect to see her till late next week.

Rush forshadowed all this before he left on Thursday saying it was bubbling in the "orc factory (my words)" of the Democratic websites.

Did you read the Ann Rice article?

To paraphrase: Governor Blanco and Mayor Nagin pleaded for days for federal help but couldn't get it (it's Bush's fault.)

Pete Marevich....my hero.

I used to watch him when the Hawks played at GA Tech. He was so close you could almost reach out and touch him (and being a high school girl I wanted to, LOL!.) Pistol Pete.

I cleaned out all the kids clothes this winter and they are sitting in the boxes, taking up space. That is where I will send them.

How cold does it get in LA in the winter? Lots of sweaters all sizes boys & men.

Is anybody listening to Fox?

Did I just hear Geraldo compare this to the Holocaust?

If so, I may have a bad case of the vapors.

Listen to him......is he insane?

I thought it was Republicans rescuing Democrats.

I just saw a local, WDSU, film made by a kid from Chalmette who went in in a boat and took video. He went down to the locks and there sitting on land was a red barge right by a broken concrete levee. I think that is our barge. He said it looked like the barge broke the level. And St Bernard Parish is no more.

The video was amazing. Houses still up to the roofs with water, dead horses, dead deer, cars sitting upright. Place is destroyed. Beautiful houses too. And old community, very tight. Their people, 1000 of them left on a pier for days, no help, 100 dead. I know someone from there, there was a piece on pBS about this parish.

Damn!

CNN has jumped into the Democrat sewer head first.

They are not even trying to hold a semblance of balance.

CNN has decided to play on the emotions of the nation.

Another words, they are making hay while they can, these sorry bastards.

God forgive me but I have nothing but disgust for these kinds of people.

Did Geraldo just compare the refugees to the Jewish people? How they were turned away from cities? Who has turned the refugees away? What a disgusting thing for him to say!

I think they are trying to incite a race war.

not cold, light jackets and cotton sweaters. Pants and long sleeves for about two months. They wear shorts and tees up into December. Hot here.

Apparently socks are really needed, adult and kids. Pleading for them.
