I can't believe what I'm watching (Oprah) throwing a tantrum because they didn't want to let her in the dome.

Yes. It is very nice that Oprah cares about these people. it is not so nice that the implication is that nobody else does.
...
Oprah cares ON CAMERA. Her show today proves she's another race pimp. What a l-o-$-e-r. The real care givers don't need or worry about camera angles.

I missed the first part of the show. Was she throwing a fit because they would not let her into the dome?

BTW...rememeber, the day after the storm, DUmmieland had post after post, saying that they wanted Mayor Nagin for the next POTUS!!!!

...
Which means absolutely nothing. The MSM could've made it look like Gumby & Pokey were the LA Gov. and N.O. Mayor and DU'ers would have gobbled that turkey too.

DU'rs next nominee, Gumby & Pokey for Potus and VP!

yes, finally Nagin said if she released them from all responsibility they would take her on a 'tour.' and did.

What the hell is the purpose of going into the Superdome?
Nagin "Can you imagine living here? These people were here with nothing."

How can he say this crap with a straight face? Ray, YOU put them in there with no food and no water!



What a difference a year makes.....this article was written after last year's evacuation for Ivan. I guarantee people were thinking they would have the same experience at the Superdome during Katrina.
http://www.wwltv.com/local/stories/091604ccjrwwlnightinbowl.122e8d1b2.html
Superdome general manager Doug Thornton laid down the ground rules early: be polite, put trash in the bins, keep the restrooms clean, smoke only in the designated area.

The sheriff's office sent over spaghetti and meatballs for dinner. It was served with a slice of white bread.

"This is the best I've eaten in a while," said Joe Maris, as he lined up for thirds.

Now her paid heart doctor is there caring for patients with the cameras -- said they were putting people in the morgans so they could "pass away in peace." John or Jane Does... BTW these are not ALL black people.
