Shocking! NOT!
Care to provide more information for those of who refuse to watch that bilge?
If I did it would mean I would have to watch Oprah.
Geraldo was just on Hannity's show saying that the mayor couldn't get people out because surrounding towns wouldn't accept them.
Yes, I'm watching. My husband called me about an hour ago from the USS Iwo Jima. He said he met Nagin and Gen. Honore. He said they seem like nice guys.
A proclamation from the Mountain Top:
It's Bush's fault.
The Oprah has spoken.
I guess the whole bus thing is understandable. I mean, when you're in a hurry to get out of the house, it's always impossible to find your keys...imagine misplacing 300+ sets...
It's not his fault that he's on Oprah, or that many died because of his inaction?
Of course Oprah went down there not for humanitarian reasons but to get something hot for her show. To profit from the disaster iow.
Does this mean they are bringing the "famous" wagons into the circle of protection?
I have up Oprah after her sex-fest show. I just can't respect someone who would do a show like that.
Was Nagin asked why the buses were not deployed?
What's an oprah?
I bet she'll ask him next about the busses!
NOT!!!!
No, and unless someone brings me a big bag of money, I never will. And that's just the way I like it.
Closing ranks.
This mayor has sent his employees on taxfunded trips to Las Vegas.
City to Offer Free Trips to Las Vegas for Officers***NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 4 - A day after two police suicides and the abrupt resignations or desertions of up to 200 police officers, defiant city officials on Sunday began offering five-day vacations - and even trips to Las Vegas - to the police, firefighters and city emergency workers and their families.
The idea of paid vacations was raised by both Mayor C. Ray Nagin and senior police officials who said that their forces were exhausted and traumatized and that the arrival of the National Guard had made way for the officers to be relieved.
"I'm very concerned about individuals who have been here, particularly since the first few days, and have been through a lot of hardship," Mr. Nagin said in an interview.
He said most of the police officers, firefighters and emergency medical workers "are starting to show signs of very, very serious stress, and this is a way to give them time to reunite with their families."
Mr. Nagin, who has been demanding more federal assistance for days as his city struggled with despair, death and flooding, said he had asked the Federal Emergency Management Agency to pay for the trips but the agency said it could not. He said the city, therefore, would pay the costs.
He said he believed there were now enough National Guard members in the city to allow the police to take a break and still keep the city secure, and he brushed off questions about whether such a trip might look like a dereliction of duty.
"I'll take the heat on that," Mr. Nagin said. "We want to cater to them."............They said that they were trying to get the first officers on their way on Monday and that the first stop would be Baton Rouge, about 75 miles from here.
There the officers will be given physical examinations and inoculations against possible infection from the polluted floodwaters, said Col. Terry Ebbert, the director of homeland security for the city, who has authority over the police and fire departments and other emergency services. ..........***

I still think she was more outraged at not being let into that Paris store.
keep us posted. I never watch the show but planned on watching at 3PM (PST) after hearing some remarks from her on commericals promoting today's show. I'm sure it's another "Bush Fault" crap spread over millions of TV views. She's God to the blacks, and so one sided.
