5. Simple. You can't control the crowds.
Unless he's surrounded by loving supporters, he just won't bother.

6. You really want to know?
I think something to get us into a confrontation with Iran was in the works ... oops here hits this Hurricane (not in the plan) .... gotta stay on subject, his war speech today undeterred by N.O. ... September may tell. Hope I am wrong. Peace.

11. Was it 'not' in the plan?
Or was it?

Im interested to know more about HAARP and so should all Americans because it is being funded by our taxpayer dollars. It is a government funded project that has been going on in Alaska for almost ten years. It is not some woowoo conspiracy.

Its very much a fact that involves very advanced manipulation of weather through the manipulation of pressure and temperature, among other things.

Im very skeptical these days.

8. They don't care
They don't care about people. They don't care about their constituents other than the ones with money. They don't care about public opinion. They just don't care.

9. Here Is A Thinking Point

From an earlier thread........

****************************************


As much as I strongly disapprove of Bush......

The last thing that area of the USA needs right now is Bush on the ground....What you are asking for is a logistical/security nightmare....Think About it..

I know what Im Im talking about......In my job from time to time I have to work sise by side with the US Secret Service with diplomatic visits to my city...it is stressfull enough during normal times......let alone dealing with a mess that hasnt even began to be sorted out....


Bush is better off in Crawford or at the White House...less photo ops as well.

10. No facilities available for fund raisers
They never go anywhere, unless they can hold a fund raiser. It's so sad. Why don't they have a fund raiser for the victims? They raise 25 million bucks at every party they throw.
