how much will the river rise, plus 20'storm surge 17' levies, 6' below SL.
is this a planed disaster to take Iraq of the new for a couple of months

the investigation about why Clinton allowed this to happen will keep iraq off the news for another month..

the city is about to go under 26 FEET of water, maybe a LOT more and the attitude in the news is to PARTY ON..!! Dudes.

this is the worst storm ever, it will get worse, and there are no sirens in New Orleans to empty the city.. not national guard to help.

this is a planed disaster, and some clerks will go to jail over it too.. you can count on that.

4. And the Mayor has not declared a mandatory evacuation??!!
I have no idea what his/her thinking is. Probably already too late.

5. Saw the New Orleans Mayor on TV late last night...
...said his lawyers were looking at a mandatory, but he didn't know if he legally could call for it yet.
