1. A one act play called "DROWN-A-LOT" where the lead characters
deny the existence of any problems and their greek chorus reflects back only pursed lipped nods.

2. This is the real "Watergate" and that is exactly what we should be
calling it... or at the very least, Watergate the Sequel, or WatergateII.

Then again, John Dean's book Worse Than Watergate should be advertised on the crawler on the bottom of KO's nightly news program.

3. Olberman did a segment that was surreal, in a way...that you seem to have
captured a bit of there. It would show an official making an official statement of the "everything is going splendidly"- sort. Then it would have a caption that would say something like, "1 hour later" and it would show what was really going on in New Orleans. Cut back to an official making some equally lame statement, and again a caption and a cut to the real situation. Very effective, imho.

Problem solvers it is.
