In fact, HE'S WORSE! He tries to act like he's a compassionate conservative person :rofl: and NOTHING could be further from the truth. At least everyone KNEW Saddam was a tyrant, he didn't hide it.

5. FEMA!!! YOU BLOODY BASTARDS!!! |
|
NEW ORLEANS - . . . A human foot arching at an odd angle was visible through the front window of a locked and dark home.
The National Guard team of searchers was about to call in a "DB," or dead body, at 1927 Lopez St. in the Broadmoor district when Lt. Frederick Fell decided to investigate.
In the past few days, the Federal Emergency Management Agency has ordered searchers not to break into homes. They are supposed to look in through a window and knock on the door. If no one cries out for help, they are supposed to move on. If they see a body, they are supposed to log the address and move on.
< snip >
Fell broke the rules and ordered his men to bash open the door, launching a series of events that would save a man's life and revitalize California Task Force 5 from Orange County. --- HOW MANY MORE PEOPLE HAVE DIED? My God! How many more have died because they won't break down the doors to see if the person is alive or not!? :cry:
I'm sending this out to every news agency I can find...
God bless you, Mr Edgar Hollingsworth... We're praying for your recovery, and that you'll see your puppy soon...
JMJ help these poor people because our government surely will not...

7. Kick....THIS IS SO AWFUL |

...Humans respond to images... MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE . This says it all...... the incompetence, the lying, the "who cares" Remember the helmet photo of Dukakis and the yelp photo of Dean.......Rethuglicans know how to exploit photo ops.... I think that we have just been handed ours. Look at the home...it says volumes as to who Mr. Hollingsworth is ....a man of pride and DAY 16!!!!!...I wonder if he is a Veteran? This picture made me cry all over again. I want every Bush supported to see it in their dreams.....it is a disgrace to America.

8. I am crying and shaking with anger... |

What heartless slime would send the rescue teams around to 'knock on the door'?! People could be unconscious and dying, just like this man was!
What the hell is wrong with our country?! I just pray that there were other heros like Lt. Frederick Fell who basically disobeyed orders to SAVE FELLOW CITIZENS!!!
God bless you, Lt. Fell! God bless you...

11. I wonder, did they search the WHOLE house? |
|
Or just do an immediate rescue at the site? It would be horrific if she was in another room... and they didn't find her... :(

If anyone deserves negligent homicide charges, it's the Boy King.
