Did I hear this right....there are STILL over 6600 missing from Katrina?

[renie408]

I heard that on the Best of Rhandi show that was on today and I was shocked. I tried to Google it, but the most recent articles I found were from November. That is about twice the number of people who died from 9/11 and the country is just ignoring it? How can that be? This really freaked me out.

1. Welcome to bu$h world . . .

. . . where reality is nothing and belief is everything.

[PDJane]

2. Yes, that's correct.......

and about 1,300 of those are children.

3. move along, nothing to see here.

The "out of sight, out of mind" way of dealing in Washington really is frightening particularly when dealing with human beings.

15. Out on bail??? n/t

[HockeyMom]

4. I read in the paper a few days ago

that they just found the body of the lead singer of the Cowsills (60s group who Partridge Family was based on) who apparently died during Katrina. Cannot remember his name.

[Sequoia]

10. I think his name was Barry.

It's just awful. How can they have just found him!!

[rzemanfl]

13. His body was found on 12/28/05. Can't remember his first name

but last name was Cowsill. Maybe Barry? Would google but have dial-up.

[babylonsister]

14. And his body was found on DECEMBER 27th, 4 months

after Katrina hit. How many more bodies are out there? :grr:

5. Life is cheap.

Unless you're a yuppie stock broker.

11. 31 billion in bonuses on Wall Street recently.... average bonus

$125,000. I make that in 3 years. Pity.

6. warning- EXTREME sarcasm alert

6,600? No, silly, they are just poor black folk. And as we all know, pasty white men count blacks as only 1/5 of a person.

So, in Republican Reality, there are only 1,320 people missing. Far less than the large and tragic number of white dead on 9/11

nothing to be worried about

/sarcasm off

7. The WAR on Chrwissssmasss!

that's the important stuff to follow. The death toll from Katrina will be corporate censored indefinitely.

[HysteryDiagnosis]

16. Let's make a war on Chris Mathew's ability to cut people off mid

sentence..... ;)

[chelsea0011]

8. I keep hearing this and I keep waiting for any media to bring

this up. But Katrina is old news in Bushworld. After all, he visited 5 times.

[deadparrot]

9. Yep.

I wonder if those families' tears will get any airtime on CNN tonight?

[renie408]

12. Yeah, the miner's deaths were tragic, but there wereTWELVE of them

This is just so surreal to me. I am going to write every network I can think of to tell them that it is CRIMINAL that they are not covering this. I know that none of my immediate 'real life' friends knew about this either and we SHOULD.

[DemBones DemBones]

17. Yes, and apparently they are just going to bulldoze houses, bodies and all

to build the new yuppie New Orleans. I heard there are more than 2,000 kids still missing.
