8. Actually people are calling in |
|
to radio stations with addresses to look for family/friends and they're passing in on to rescuers. I was watching some tv tonight and there are still people alive in the city and some still refuse to leave. As of 1:15 am the water is down 5 feet.

7. Well at least it points people in the right direction to think about it if |
|
only subconsciously, it adds to the image that is beginning to build in many people's minds who were pro-bush or agnostic. Read some of the posts on AOL messageboards, I try to post links and someone complained that her posting of the German article showing what a sham bush's photo op was - even the stand giving out food torn down as soon as he left - had been taken down several times.
I added it, and some other articles and links that tell the truth about bush and got strange messages that my screen name wasn't allowed to use function, REPLY which I had been using for 10 posts. Sent a post that the comments that were not pro-bush were being deleted or not allowed to post and I was able to start posting again.
Even if AOL deletes posts, some people read them and it encourages those who know the truth about bush and gives some direction for links for people not acquainted with the alternet truth media but who are doubting what the MSM has been telling them and are sick about the genocide in New Orleans, still ongoing.
When I posted the link to the letter from the soldier on CNN, there was a video that despite the publicity that bush was going to allow Cuban doctors to help, that Castro still had not heard from bush and I wonder if the American doctors who responded to the government email but were kept outside the city along with the Red Cross so there would be no witnesses beside the embedded media who apparently decided to risk all when face to face with these Nazi atrocities, but I think a lot of it is still going on.

14. It's still good news even if she's well known and got a boost from tv. |
|
I'm glad she's getting good news, rather than the news she feared might be coming.

I wonder how long it would have taken to rescue them if Donna had not gone on CNN.
