5. She didn't! Did she?
Please tell me she did not say this. After Lou Dobbs today I am afraid you might say yes.

16. I don't think this is an actual quote?
At least I hope not. I think the OP paraphrased, but I did not tune in for the entire show so?

21. paraphrasing but she kept saying
the astrodome showed "big texas size" heart and "big texas size" this and that. She gave more attention to how great TEXAS was instead of how desperate the victims are.

22. Can we confirm whether this is a direct quote or not?
"That's tonight's message." implies it is not.

23. Stop it with all the "colored people" remarks. Enough! This is a
tradgedy and even if you mean it in a sarcastic way..it hurts.
