-t! Honey, I'm so sorry. I've been thinking about you and Henry, and will, of course continue to.

Much love to y'all.

I'm really offended by Bush on my tv right now with the governors of Alabama and MS. First, Haley Barbour just complimented the federal govt on what a great job they are doing. Does Barbour not remember BEGGING the President to do something on Tuesday? Or even his complaining yesterday?

What caused my eyes to roll back in my head during W's little speech was his reference to poor Trent Lott, whose house was destroyed. Yes, sad for him, but don't made me feel sorry for a man who has at least one more house in DC, and a slew of corporate sponsors who are perfectly willing to put him and his into whatever accommodations he would prefer, not while you have babies and the elderly dying in the Superdome because they have nowhere else to go.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Cindy, your post in Press is appreciated. I've already posteded it elsewhere and will be flinging it about madly to my e-mail lists.

Kathy,

You won't believe this (actually, maybe you will)...Lott's BEACHFRONT house was destroyed. His main house is in Jackson (I think) and is fine - last I heard.

Kathy, you're being very silly. Trent Lott has a very PRETTY house that was destroyed. If your shotgun shack or trailer home or just plain old casa is blown away its not the same kind of upsetting. Sheesh.

His WEEKEND PLACE was destroyed and he's a model of human suffering?

I'm going to vomit.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm going to vomit.

If only the vomit could be packaged and sent to the appropriate people....

Oh.my.God.

I figured he had at least one other house. I didn't think that the shrub was referring to the man's SUMMER HOME!!! Gah.

Did anyone catch Paula Zahn's interview with the FEMA suit, Mike Brown? It was three hours before Koppel's and the first time he trotted out the "we didn't know about the Superdome people" defense.

BROWN: Every person in that Convention Center, we just learned about that today...ZAHN: Sir, you aren't just telling me you just learned that the folks at the Convention Center didn't have food and water until today, are you? You had no idea they were completely cut off? BROWN: Paula, the federal government did not even know about the Convention Center people until today.

le nubian, do you have a link on it being his beach house? I have someone who needs a smacking with that fact.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Someone at DailyKos transcribed Mayor Nagin's interview with WWL, or at least big hefty chunks of it. Fierce and frustrated and eloquent.
