"I KNEW I shouldn't watch this...I am gonna need my anxiety medicine tonight!!! -----"

I know what you mean. I thought that over the days, the finger-pointing would stop, but no matter what station you go to, it goes on and on. The newscasters actually dwell on the negative......"What should have been done by the federal government? I'm sure there will be hearings on this!"

I can't watch anymore.

What should have been done by the federal government

Two questions I have been asking every single "journalist" I can get either email or phone number for

Do you know the lines of legal authority in a disaster like this from the 1st Responders (City of NO) to the 2nd Responders (State of New Orleans) to the 3rd Responders (The Federal Govt)? If this is "All the Feds fault" why is the State of Louisianan STILL refusing to release operational control over this mess to the Feds as of Mon 9-5-05? Please explain to me How it is "All Bush's fault" for something the State of Louisiana is in control of? Considering what we saw last week in NO. Just what did the billions of dollars in Federal Homeland Security money give to the State of Louisiana and the City of New Orleans since 9-11 to manage this sort of disaster for the 72-96 hours FEMA directive tell them it will take for Federal Assistance to reach a disaster zone BUY the Federal Taxpayer's?

And now I was just reading that the Today show today was droning on about how there are TOO many military in NO. A day or 2 ago there weren't enough, now too many.

You can't ever please people like this.

It won't stop because they now know the Majority do not hold Bush accountable, of those that do hold him to blame, only about 22% believe it wholely on his shoulders and have intense hatred. and 3/4ths hold local/State accountable while only 2/3rd's hold Feds accountable. This when the facts hadn't been loudly trumpeted on most of our numedia! Infact, while much of our nuMedia was hyperventiliating and spreading erroneous information.

The MSM, of course, feels it just hasn't got it's message out and will keep shouting because we're too stupid to demand the President's impeachment for Nature and Dems incompetance.

The Dems will keep going because the Dems are in trouble in LA. This will reflect badly on all of them even out of state, so they are huddling up.
