FoxNews will NEVER hear the end of this. I don't care if it's a janitor reading the AP wire in the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton affiliate, they can't just go to "American Idol" at this moment. I wanted O'Reilly off of there, but not this way.
Nevermind.

Stating "we will find out what caused the blackout"......
To: Joe Hadenuf
Bush speaking:
"Focused on two major things, working with state & local authorities to manage the consequences....we've offered all the help they need to help people cope with this blackout....thank the people in the cities and states for their calm response... grateful for that....Other thing we're working on is to"... get electricity up and running
(Paraphrasing):One thing I can say for certain is this was not a terrorist act
To: Unknown Freeper
Maybe FNC could put O'Reilly back on, and put on the child psychologists. That was interesting.......NOT.
I don't what is worse, CNBC almost begging people to start looting and rioting, FNC with the head doctors, or CNN, just for being CNN.
In this day and age, how hard is it to get a live shot, and pictures from Detroit or Cleveland, or Podunk NY? Cripes, we can go live from a moving Army truck in Iraq for pete's sake, but we can't get anybody from Akron?
Typical media world revolving around NYC. A nuke could go off in Topeka, and the lead story would be the power outage in New York. If it is 20 miles east of I-95, it aint important.
To: P.O.E.
He insinuated they don't know what the cause was....
To: null and void
I rarely go see movies based on books I've read. It always ruins the books for me...

Well that's a relief to know that this can happen without the aid of terrorists.

And the volume level is worse than before!

CNN: It may be several days before power is restored to Cleveland and Akron.

It took me three hours to get home from work in Manhattan tonight, but since I was supposed to be working late I actually got home "early" -- so all's well that ends well.
Someone at NY Waterways Ferry needs to be beaten with a dozen bats -- I have never seen such a disgraceful operation as I saw there.
To: P.O.E.
He basically stated "they don't know why this happened"....
To: Ex-Dem
Bush looks pretty tired and harried...I don't think so. He's probably thinking "I warned you idiots and you didn't listen" and feels frustrated.
