Kyra on CNN: Mayer of N.O. sends them S.O.S. message.

[Beelzebud]

Totally contradicting what the feds have been saying. Says they are now marching to the expressway to find "relief".

This is an uncoordinated disaster....

[fooj]

1. WE are under seige.

:cry:

[SoCalDem]

2. Exercise is good for ya.

:sarcasm:

[Pithy Cherub]

3. the mayor sent a desperate SOS

[Neecy]

4. we're watching Phillips emerging from the Dark Side...

right before our eyes.

She just demanded "the truth" - pointing out the disconnect between what the feds are saying and what we're seeing on the cameras and what the mayor is saying.

[speedoo]

5. Hey, Kyra is speaking the truth.

Contrasting Chertoff's bullshit with the reality of the camera.

[Beelzebud]

6. Yeah, she's actually doing a damn good job.

[merbex]

10. One hour ago she was asking "why are they angry"

Until she starts asking intelligent questions of elected and other officials and even to reporters in the field rather than repeat talking points I won't stop complaining about her.

She has a loooong way to go to get to journalist status

[Neecy]

13. true

She was asking a lot of lunkhead questions until the horror of the video feed sunk in - you could see her change right on camera.

The press NEEDS to dog them on this - there's no other way the message will get out.

[Justitia]

7. GODDAMN IT! Can't Clinton just take over when he makes that appearance?

Somebody DO SOMETHING! They are letting New Orleans DIE!

Bill Clinton - I expect you to do something - anything!!!! NOW!

[OhioChick]

8. I just heard that.............

and it's making me mas as hell! Why does a mayor of a city have to send out an SOS for some ^%$%# help??? The other day, I cried..........now, I'm getting pissed.

[Halliburton]

9. Karl will send John King to save the day

his buddy from the WH press corps

[Lone_Star_Dem]

11. No buses and they are short supplies for 10-15,000

Was that what was said?

[bluedog]

12. they are going to MARCH out of NO

that'll show the world that they still have PRIDE and HONOR to take matters into their own hands.,,,,, I am with you proud people..do what you have to do...the world is with you........your federal government let you down!
