Till 10 pm?
Good point, Bahbah. New orleans has NEVER deployed their buses to evacuate those needing help.
You know, I heard last night that John Travolta was supposed to go to LA to "inspect" the place.
He has his own airplanes...so maybe they want to stop celebrity flights into the local airports so that IMPORTANT flights can come and go!
“This is a disaster,” says Lt. Gen. Russel Honore. “This isn't something somebody can control. We ain't stuck on stupid.”
Get your nick from Harry Potter... delivering the messages?
Dunno. Can come up with no fun reason for a no-fly zone now. All we can do is keep watching.
Jeffers - why do you think this no fly zone has been implemented until 10:00 p.m.?
HPD says otherwise - no rapes - and given the amount of security at the shelters, I would be very surprised. There have been six *attempted* rapes, but no successful (!) ones.
Shep ran over a parking spot holder in 2000.
Maybe it's so the press doesn't take pictures of bodies.
What other thoughts do you have? We're all speculating and we won't think you're nuts. Promise :-)
well, maybe its to allow military rescue operations to take place in that airspace. what else could it be?
Gosh...thanks for all of that information...
we need to keep your post on hand in case there are hearings and the Mayor and Gov. try to say that they had NO recourse other than what they did....
THANKS again!
Well said! Maybe some of us should send Newtie a little email telling him that he just lost our vote in 2008 - if he keeps this up, he can forget running as NO ONE will vote for him, except perhaps a couple of moderates who don't know better.
Bobby and Vitters may need to go to the woodshed, too, they're disgusting.
Listen to this: Cuba has offered 1600 Doctors and medical personnel per WESH tv out of Daytona.
sensationalism they can't bring back the 145 mile per wind so they have to do something to make you keep watching.wish all these rich people would just send their money and zip it.
Who is HPD?
They are misinformed.
We have seen interviews with people leaving the shelters who said that children and women were raped. Some of the stories told to relief workers and recounted here were quite detailed.
All of the reporters on the ground in NO on FNC have discussed the fact that children, young girls and women have been raped.
Well, Aaron Broussard demanded to let the people in to see their destroyed homes.
Generator fumes kill one, sicken six
Monday, 3:37 p.m.

One man died and six other people were severely poisoned with carbon monoxide from running an electricity generator inside a Harvey home, Jefferson Parish officials said Monday.
The identities of the victims were not available. The survivors were taken to West Jefferson Medical Center.
Robert Wilson, assistant chief of the Marrero-Ragusa Volunteer Fire Department, said he saw four generators in the home at 2316 Alex Korman Blvd., in the Woodmere subdivision.
Wilson said dead man was in his 50s and, judging from the condition of the body, might have died as early as Friday. Because carbon monoxide poisoning impairs mental functions, he said, the other occupants of the house might not have realized that the man was dead.
Deano Bonano, deputy chief administrative assistant to Jefferson Parish President Aaron Broussard, said sheriff's deputies originally thought that all seven people in the home were dead. But emergency medical technicians found signs of life and sent the six survivors to the hospital.
Parish officials say the incident was the latest of several deaths caused by carbon monoxide poisoning. Portable generators should never be placed inside a home or an enclosed area, they said.
Right thinking Americans are disgusted at political hacks that instead of joining together to help, sell out the President or try to take him down on the backs of the dead. I think we should declare the Beltway a national disaster area and insist these politicos spend 99% of their time in their own precincts and states. They don't need to be in Washington to communicate anymore. They need to communicate with US.
I think he is talking about Houston.
I;d like to see how they will blame Bush for that contaminated site...but they will find away..LOL
