Just watching this on the BBC now .. Civil engineers being interviewed about the levees .. Bush going to be taking a visit there today to 'survey the situation' .. people dying and being left where they are .. where the fuck is the food, water and medical attention these people so desperately need, its been four days now!!.

I read the headlines that said Bush surveyed the disaster area. Not until I got into the stories did I find out all he did was look out the window of Air Force One on his way back to Washington. Talk about "spin". What a total fuck!

And we were just talking on this board several days ago about the President and vacation. And how he doesn't need to be in Washington he can handle everything there. So he flies from a neighboring state all the way up to DC and doesn't even stop in Lousianna???

Shit, Bush Sr and Clinton have been and/or are there already!

Then Cory mentioned elsewhere that the FEMA director said on TV: "The lawlessness that is being reported is few and far between.....everything is under control ..."

Another wonder from looking at the articles was about the Reserves enmassing in Baton Rouge. I swear some high official somewhere (not sure if this was a federal guy, governor's office, military or who) said they wouldn't be sending them into NO yet because things were currently too dangerous there! .....

WTF??? Has everyone lost their minds?!?!

Buff posted an interview with a local ("Bigfoot") who's at the Convention Center. Unbefuckinglievable.

The feds didn't even KNOW there were people at the Convention Center til today... goddamned incompetents!
