3. I think the on site reporters bailed
Ran for their lives.

The only coverage is by cell phone to inhabitants in the dome.

5. Martial law that protects the property rights of owners in New Orleans
...and totally ignores the needs of the tens of thousands of hurricane victims who were former residents of the city. Priorities have been totally up-side-down. I absolutely refuse to contribute money to any charity or group claiming to provide aid the these hurricane victims under these circumstances. I do not trust any of these neo-con monsters.

7. How can someone not get busses in there now!
I don't care if it is another country that invades to do it.
Today, as soon as it is light, get those people out.

And this Costello chick whining about looting, saying THAT will be the lasting image? I don't think so. It's those faces, it's those voices saying so clearly the help they need NOW
and time passing.

She says she hasn't seen anything like it and she means the LOOTERS, not the people ignored. Good Lord.

We need someone now now now

and i feel so helpless

8. If a dozen Iranians had landed in a raft with bad intentions, you
would have several divisions on site within the hour.

9. Well, no.
They left us completely undefended for 9/11. And they knew in advance.
