12. So ... it was too dark to see much, |
|
he couldn't possibly have been everywhere at the same time, and anyone's surprised that he didn't see anything? So now it just didn't happen? If you're raped without a witness, what's it called?
:wtf:

15. oh, nugin made a comment that he thought blanco was a screwup |
|
but that bush was being misinformed by the people around him. there was a post or two on his political affiliation before he ran for mayor also. seems he was a repug, and supported the repug that ran against blanco.

8. Wolfie is a partisan hack of a douchebag |
|
Always looking to demean Democrats ever since his fantasy object, Bunny Pants, became the pResident.
Whatever he says, I ignore.

I watched CNN, MSNBC, etc for hours and hours and days and days.
Tons of evacuees themselves said there were rapes and murders inside the DOME.

13. The Dome, or the Convention Center? |
|
Edited on Tue Sep-27-05 03:22 PM by xray s
The Dome had some limited Nat'l Guard presence. They searched people for weapons. Conditions were horrible, but not the Lord of the Flies scene people have been led to believe.
The Convention Center, on the other hand, was a mess. No law. No Nat'l Guard. Nothing.
I think a lot of people mix up the Dome with the Convention Center.

14. and he's right... partially |

I saw Nagin re-telling the BS to Oprah. I'm disgusted that he didn't take the time to find out the facts. He had such disgust for his own citizens that he just chose to believe the worst. Sorry, but Nagin made my sh!t list over this.
