Is someone else seriously ill that the demogogic media are not discussing? Were they speaking of someone specific?

Don't worry, Karl Rove is working on it. /sarc

[Carolinamom]

Judge Stevens is 85 years old. Even though he appears to be healthy at present, he can't live forever. Didn't Ginsberg have cancer?

[shadeaud]

Russert could be meltdown mode due to the fact that the future of the democrat/liberal party is in the same position as New Orleans. Why hasn't' Russert commented on any positive result from the Federal response. Even Herrr al dough had to admit that things improved drastically once the authority for this disaster was released to the pros.

[COBOL2Java]

Well, well. Shep Smith reporting on FNS. Looks like he's out of mascara...

[dmw]

No way he can set the record straight with Tim's hard hitting attacks on him. I am seething and trying to stop shaking from my anger so that I can email Tim and ask him if he plans to resign for doing a unprofessional interview, and attacking Chertoff like he did. Tim's true colors came out like I've never seen before. And this is just the beginning of what is to come from the liberal idiots.

[Bahbah]

Is someone else seriously ill that the demogogic media are not discussing?

I am hoping for Bader-Ginsberg to retire. I am not wishing illness on her. But there's no reason for her to hang on now, I think. The Court is going to go conservative (I pray) and she can't hang on until '09.

[A Citizen Reporter]

Who is this bozo who is speaking, and why doesn't NBC identify him?

[maica]

That seems to be a talking point everywhere today. Isn't it amazing how groupthink works!

[Colonel_Flagg]

I'd love to see Fox become a "No-Shep Zone".

One of the worst parts of the entire hurricane saga is how the people of NO were actually treated by their Governor and Mayor

It makes me sick to my stomach how those people were treated. They were herded to the Superdome and the convention center. There were SUPPOSED to be local authorities taking over those places but hey, they were out looting.

NO treated those people worse than animals. The sight sickened Americans across the land.

And again, the sight of those school buses under water says it all. If Sharpton, Jackson, Elijah, et al could wish away anything they'd wish away that picture.

Already Naginhead is trying the lame defense that he had no DRIVERS.

Heh.

Recall that young citizen who found a set of bus keys just hanging, absconded the bus and taking as many fellow citizens as they could, headed for safety.

Oh, and yeah, there's a pic of that too.

They're hurting. Us idiots out here in la-la land, we got eyeballs. They cannot overturn the harm those pics worth a million words will do.

[tiredoflaundry]

out of hair gel also.

[OldFriend]

Lots of senators getting in that last bit of free travel at our expense before they come back to work.

For my part they can never come back and the world would be a better place.

And btw, good morning, friend.

[Darth Republican]

With apologies to Tom Hanks...

"There's no crying in the Senate!"

[Right_in_Virginia]

Yep, Brit's back.

Whew. I've been too queasy to even turn the TV on. But, will do so now.

[Carolinamom]

Shep is STILL on the d... bridge.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Chertoff on Fox News Sunday, now.

[A Citizen Reporter]

OK, He is President of the Jefferson Parish. ......missed the name. NOT ID'd by party on NBC, but I can venture a guess.

Now he's crying.....

This guy is thanking Blanco? OMG

Does he not even understand that Blanco didn't ask for additional National Guard troops until after Wednesday?

How many children were raped in the Dome because she didn't ask for more help?

Fascinating link. It appears while everyone sued everyone for a piece of the oil pie old NO kept sinking, except for the casinos and graft and corruption that was passed around. Great post.
