If the MSM showed the dead, rotting, bloated rat-eaten corpses in NOLA
would the Republicans be routed from office and Bu$h indicted, impeached and imprisoned.
:(
I've seen the photos on Al Jazeera and on Eschaton and on DU.
Why do they only show the bodies under sheets and no the bodies in the floodwaters and wreckage?
:(
We need to SHOCK the public and shame the Republicans.
It's awfully ugly but we must make them show the pictures or do it ourselves on signs and billboards and TV ads.

5. They can handle aborted fetuses
They can apparently handle trucks driving around town that are covered in photos of aborted fetuses. They can handle Saving Private Ryan. They can handle those violent video games. They can also handle the truth about what is happening to the dead bodies in NOLA.

3. Are you sure? They showed dead mini horses in MS yesterday on TV.

Why not dead people?

OK: At the protest on the 24th in DC carry posters with pictures of the dead bodies and Bu$h.

4. There's a big pic of a floating body on the front page of the NYT...
I saw it this morning, very chilling...the pic I mean, not the morning.

9. getting a body count out of the rethugs is impossible
We can't do it for Iraq, and we probably won't be able to get them to do it for Louisiana, Alabama, or Mississippi either. I don't see any plausible way beyond a parallel body count effort.
