Mayor Phil Capitino, Kenner, Louisiana, just said on WDSU that he would never support the Red Cross again. Said they have never yet seen the Red Cross. Only people helping were the Wal-Mart people.
He said no electricity there, etc. Flood, wind damage.
(Just as a side note: I did see a TV clip of Red Cross volunteers handing out supplies to evacuees temporarily living in Memphis.)
Landrieu and Blanco were elected only because of New Orleans. Gonna be an interesting political shift in La if NO doesn't get rebuilt fast and all those people get back so they can do the dead people vote.
Remember that weird post several days ago who said Justice Thomas was staying in NOLA during the storm? Was that a mistaken identity for Nagin?
DAMN!
verything is happening too fast these days.
God Bless his soul.
ARRRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Poor thing, he went out with his boots on didn't he?
another supreme court fight ahead, I am tired already. How on earth is this going to happen.
Drudge just posted it now
The fact that their constituents are scattered to the four winds might be a plus for the constituents; some might even decide that they can make it on their own in another state and start a new life.
Oh, my. So sorry about Mr. Chief Justice Rehnquist.
Did Larry King have any guest that spoke up for President Bush?
If not....3 hours of Bush bashing in totally wrong, especially at this point in the process.
They are trying to get donations though....maybe they feel like the rich libs will give more if they give them "red meat" for 3 hours!!!
There were 8 Red Cross trucks at the Gorman Fire today which closed I-5. The LA County Fire asked for them , and they showed up to feed people who cant return to their homes.
All these disaster people are on the internet talking about the destruction of New Orleans in the toxic soup bowl, and when it happens, they seem shocked.
What else can get thrown at this President!
!!!!!!
They just said on the local news that there are about 13,000 "evacuees" in Tennessee - and that is expected to grow exponentially. Pretty amazing for this far north. But they will find there is NO one more charitable than the good folks in TN.
Y'all come on up, we'll clothe you, feed you, and take you to church!
The 'Rats will look horrific if they put up a stink about USSC nominees following the current nightmare.
Think they are in Memphis?
I know that Geraldo is given to outrageous hyperbole...but he really did compare this to the Holocaust, huh?
Yikes....oh, well, he is only offending the Jewish people, so that's probably okay! /sarc.
Just got home?...What happened this afternoon?....We get most everyone out?....The boats still going from rooftop to rooftop hunting for any survivors?
Also Kenner Mayor said another official (didn't catch the name) was going to succeed and become an independent country --- thought aid would get there sooner if they were a foreign nation.
