1. Tore my heart out

I was bawling too. I think all the administration folk out to have to watch this every night until kingdom come.

2. Yes, there's something about watching a grown man break down

with that much emotion that grips at your stomach and turns it into knots. They should play that video on every show so everyone can see it.

3. This is a must see for everyone...

This poor man... my heart breaks for him.

And the things he's saying, that FEMA cut the emergency communication lines for his police, and that he had to post his own armed guards to basically protect the lines from FEMA?! This is insane...

Our federal government is at war against our local government...

5. I just watched it also, and had tears running down my face again.

That was just absolutely heartbreaking.

I'm so worried about these people, not only the displaced victims, but also the people in there trying to help the victims, and trying (almost in vain) to get the government to do something, to help them. Someone needs to show this to * (though it probably won't do any good). How long can they carry on, all of them? This is just unbearable, and the almost total lack of initial response by the * Administration is obscene.
