Any Updates on Overpass People?
Shepherd Smith has been very, very upset about these people.

I pray to god somebody has helped them. They were the ones I made my first pissed off phone calls to Senator Specter about.

1. No change as of an hour or so ago.
Sad to say.

2. No food or water yet?
Christ.

I gotta start freaking out again, I guess.
Why isn't CNN covering them?

5. Dunno where CNN is on this?
Maybe Shepard Smith has legally adopted them. I think he would if he could.

3. O'Reilly said he is taking care of it. They will be evacuated immediately
since he told them to do it on ...... "The Factor". :eyes:

10. It's absolutely laughable how much power he thinks he has.
Who the fuck cares about the factor? I couldn't tell you one damn thing that moran said. I really doubt all the emergency workers and those trying to evacuate the people really care much more than I do about falafel-man's orders on his ego-tripping tv show on a networks whose rating numbers have been dropping faster than a brick falling from a skyscraper.

4. they are in lockdown mode...
not letting anyone in or out...

press conf with Blanco on right now...
she was surprised when told that there were still people at the overpass when some reporter asked her about that.

tho she said she knew there were very few people at the superdome and a lot at the convention center...without stating numbers...said they would be evecuated in the morning...

7. They're locked down...Ok...but any supplies?
If they're getting water, that'll be a little OK.
