67. Nitpick: This flood came from Lake Pontchartrain |
|
which borders the city on the north, not from the Mississippi. Levees, floodwalls and drainage canals, poorly designed and even more poorly maintained by Bush**co, ushered the lake waters into the heart of the city.

Edited on Tue Aug-29-06 11:52 AM by VolcanoJen
It sounded like Kyra Phillips, it might have been Daryn Kagan. Her mic was turned on off-camera during Bush's comments, and you could hear her chatting with a coworker.
It was hard to make out in the crosstalk, but she said something like, "He's married, three kids, and his wife is a control FREAK."
I wonder who she was talking about...?
You could also hear her talking about "inspirational" men. She said something like, "They're hard to find, but they're out there."
:rofl: :rofl: at CNN fuckuppery!!

63. The fact that news analysts and journalists aren't immediately |
|
pulling back the curtain of deceipt re New Orleans and administration comments ("It's amazing") is more proof of near total media control. Real journalists should be outraged that they are being used as mouthpieces to deceive the public. This is one of the main reasons that the worst, most dangerous, most incompetent administration in history is still in office and why the november election will be close and why 35% of the nation still believes Bush is doing a good job.
How can real cameramen, producers, and journalists really just show the telecast that the WH wants to show? Can't they pan back to show the devastation on either side of the renovated houses? How can this stand? If this is happening on an issue like Katrina (close to home, not terror and fear oriented) then what does this say about the health of our media and democracy?
Hard to believe...but it consistent with how DSM, 2004 elections, Plame, swiftboaters, global warming, 9/11,NSA, Edmonds, and all the rest have been handled. I'm stunned. Someone has to expose the deceipt in primetime. DC dems have to express their outrage.
