Should we make a web page debunking the RW spin on Katrina?
Edited on Mon Sep-05-05 02:55 PM by the dogfish
I'm seriously asking. I'll do it but I need help. And I need good ideas for what domain name to choose.

On edit: We would do this so that we could have one cohesive, articulate source to point people to in order to combat the RW bullshit machine.

I'm enraged. They are incompetent and want to destroy others to remain at the helm of this country and continue driving it into the ground.

11. Ok, great! Let's collaborate, certainly no harm having more than one!
Edited on Mon Sep-05-05 03:10 PM by the dogfish
I'm going to have katrinafacts.org and katrinatruth.org just point to one site.

10. I just registered katrinatruth.org and katrinafacts.org before the RW did
Hah!

Ya never know.

Anyway, we have both domains.

I am at work at the moment, I will work on this at night each night this week.

ALL HELP IS NEEDED AND APPRECIATED GREATLY putting this together! We need to put together a coherent, articulate, FACTUAL timeline!

And yes we can have a forum too, on the site- but I won't have time to maintain anything more elaborate than that.

16. probably people who think they'll make a buck off the domain later
If it was someone trying to cover the WH's ass, I think they'd be panicked enough to have registered all the basic domains for that name (.com, .org & .net)

Just a guess.

18. Most likely right
katrinatimeline.org is all set up and ready to go, just a matter of the DNS picking up before it starts to work. I sat up a domain for a client last week that was up and running in about 3 hours nationwide, no telling what it's running right now.

13. Yes! Great idea
And then we should google bomb it so that everyone will see the facts!!

The aid that has been denied to the people in NO & the Gulf should be known by everyone!!
