Regarding the Mary Landrieu/George Stephanopolis helicopter trip:
Mary freaked out when they came upon a single excavator shovel that was being used to repair one of the levees. From what I could see the shovel was all the way out on the repair, with a queue of dump trucks lined up to provide it with more repair material, but NO room for additional shovels.
Yet Landrieu used the example of that one shovel (again, operating in a location where deploying a second shovel would have been physically impossible) to rake the Bush Administration's response.
Someone needs to remind "Mary" that Bush has been nicer to her than either her fellow Democrats or the press.
Poor Mary is just upset because so many supporters are being moved out of NOLA. Plus, she loses votes with each person who realizes what happened and who's at fault.
