New Orleans Lady SHUTS CNN'S SOLEDAD O'BRIEN DOWN!!!
CNN ^ | Sept. 8, 2005 | self

Posted on 09/08/2005 5:27:28 AM PDT by Poundstone

Anybody just see this lady in New Orleans SHUT DOWN CNN blabbermouth Soledad O'Brien? It was awesome! The lady (whose name I forgot) said her ancestors settled in New Orleans and she's lived there all her life. She said her neighborhood was high and dry, she had running water, and she wasn't going to evacuate. She blasted CNN and the MSM for showing only shots of flooded New Orleans, saying they weren't showing the parts of the city that were dry and inhabitable. Then she blasted the NO city government for failing to implement its own evacuation plan and evacuate inner-city people using buses. O'Brien tried a few times to rebut the "New Orleans lady," but the lady SHUT HER DOWN and seized control of the interview. In the end, O'Brien agreed to take her TV crew to the lady's neighborhood and show that. This was GREAT!!!

In fairness to O'Brien, I've seen her point out to some folks how badly the state/locals have screwed up. And I think I read on freerepublic somewhere that she interviewed Nagin last week, and was pretty tough on him.

It's a DU thing. Posters that post the truth or make them (DU) look bad are labeled a Lousy FReeper troll.

I get that a lot.

"If parts of the city are high and dry and INHABITABLE, why the mandatory evacuation?

Why now?

What is the game there?"

Anybody else smell the ultimate emminent domain case here?

Just as New York City is pictured by most of the nation as Manhattan.

The link didn't take sorry but the page can be found at the bottom left side of the "American Morning" page on CNN.

I think THAT is an issue here.

Where are they going to build trumps just announced NO hotel?

I think Nagin's manuver is about 10 days too late.

Cant take property without just compensation either but they do. Cant take property without due posses but they do. Cant infringe on the right to bear arms but they do. Cant regulate freedom of speech but they do. (CFR). I think there was a presidential directive 13083 that gave FEMA the power to take anything they felt they needed in a natural disaster
even private food stocks.

She always has that 'concerned and angry' look on her face as she ends a segment, as if her last unspoken words were "...and still the President has not responded."

I wonder how Hemmer was hired, did he see an opening and apply, or did they contact him or what?

Was this posting about CNN accurate is really my concern.

On last night's "Nightline," Koppel found a man taking care of his property (looked terrific, no water, beautiful lawn), so Koppel asked him why he wouldn't evacuate. He said, "I'm a Republican. I'm not a Democrat with my hand out" (and he opened his hand to illustrate).
