1. Shouldn't the private companies who deregulated Texas services have enough in the bank?
I thought that "privatizing" meant better service. Guess not.

4. What? You expect these greedy bass turds to spend their money?
You're nuts! Rather get cheaper labor from overseas, than use our own UNION labor. Heck, Enron, Entergy, and the like can't SPEND anything... Their CEOs might not get as big bonuses at the end of the year!

5. KBH gushing over Chertoff and him "getting up to speed"
over the last few days

:puke:


Chertoff saying some placed "inaccessible" so they cannot do more searches. Funny, news helicopters have been flying ALL over the island these last few hours. Why can't military helicopters be doing the same?

Who's helping Haiti and Cuba. Where the fugg is he when there are people in Louisiana haven't had power since Gustav.

Let Bushco, Perrty, McBush and Appaulin destroy public education and see who has enough training to fix a light bulb let alone the electrical grid.

10. Chertoff told by goon: "We have to keep you on schedule". Exit Chertoff
End of conference.


Chertoff couldn't say "the mayor and county judge will/have/will tell you, etc..." enough. Over and over.

6. Are they asking the same countries they told "thanks, but no thanks" after Katrina?
Didn't *co reject hundreds of millions in assistance after Katrina? Guess Texas is another story.
