1. I think my heart has officially shattered.

:cry: :cry::cry::cry:

[jackster]

3. IT IS TIME FOR A REVOLUTION

WE CANNOT LET THE POOR OF THIS COUNTRY DOWN

This weekend I start a massive letter writing campaign, I plan to make signs and freeway blog, I am NOT going to sit back and take this sh*t!

[myrna minx]

16. Our fellow human beings are counting on US.

I am haunted by the little cards I would fill out for Amnesty International basically saying "We know you are here...we know you are alive" essentially saying don't give up. It makes me so incredibly sad that that here, in the US, there are scores of desperate people, huddled in their homes not knowing if anyone knows that they are there. :cry: I wish someone would fly a banner over the city saying that "we know you are here" or "don't give up hope" or something. :cry:

[info being]

36. We need Chavez right now

Or somebody.

[nini]

9. I'm with you

:cry: :hug:


I don't think I've ever been this outraged and disillusioned with this country.

[myrna minx]

21. In the second photo, the look of such sorrow

and compassion on that womans face made me lose it. I will never forget her. :cry:

[nini]

24. the baby's expression in the last one breaks my heart

As little as he is he knows his mama is hurting.. :cry: :cry:

[Stephanie]

2. horrible horrible

unbelievable

[leftchick]

4. I thought my heart broke last night

it is happening over and over again. :cry:

[JimmyJazz]

5. When people drown in a flood, that is tragic...

When they die because the government failed them on every level, at every step of the way...there are simply no words.

[nini]

13. exactly.. how many will die because of their failures?

:hug:

[madokie]

17. Criminal comes to mind

[sabra]

6. We will not forget!

[earth mom]

7. The anguish and rage I'm feeling is about to blow!

simple unbelievable! :cry: :grr:

[nini]

14. I'm there too... and I hardly know where to start.

:cry:

[JanMichael]

8. kick

my god.

[ohio_liberal]

10. This is absolutely hideous

But it's good that the media is putting these images out there for people to see what REALLY going on there.

They're fucking letting people DIE. I'm fucking outraged. Outraged!!

[smbolisnch]

11. Dear god.

:cry:

[merbex]

12. NO, there are hundreds of millions of Americans that want to help right no

but roughly 50,000 neo cons in the B* administration don't seem to understand that government at its most basic level is to provde for the safety and welfare of its people. When you intentionally weaken government institutions and agencies this is the result.

That is no comfort for you at this time, I know.

Try to hold on a little longer OTHER COUNTRIES ARE READY TO HELP-(if he let's them in)

[SammyWinstonJack]

15. And her rotten little spoiled brat son is spit right out of her mouth.

Rotten little apple didn't fall far from that spoiled orchard.

[nini]

18. No kidding.. it's easy to see where his attitudes came from.

what an evil evil person she is. :puke:

[stop the bleeding]

19. Too bad this does not make it to the mainstream media

Kicking, and my heart is breaking :(

[nini]

20. welcome to DU

:hug:

[stop the bleeding]

26. thank you, I used to be a regular back in the months after the

election, and had to pick a new name and password. I knew that I would be able to track info here in regards to N.O.

[Politicub]

22. Bush was smiling yesterday - he's loving this

:cry: :cry: :cry:

America is no more :( Our country is broken and I don't know how it can be fixed.

There is no compassion to be found for these poor people.

[MN ChimpH8R]

23. But to BFEE, these aren't even people

suffering in NOLA. They are serfs, peasants. In BushWorld the only people who register as human are the haves and the have-mores. This criminal family of lunatics should be extirpated root and branch from American public life and be banned in perpetuity from ever running for any political office again.

[mattclearing]

25. Freepers: "Why aren't they walking out of there?"

Assholes.

[nini]

30. I wouldn't have made it out due to a 'minor' disability

I can't imagine people like me and how they're just freaking not able to walk for miles, stand for hours etc... I wouldn't have been able to save myself.

Scares the shit out of me to tell you the truth.

[MsTryska]

27. holy crap. i'm actually crying.

sitting in my cube and crying.

i hate this president.


i feel so fucking powerless.

[nini]

28. I think I'm beyond the tears now

rage is the best way to describe my mood.


:hug:

[MsTryska]

37. *lol* thanks for the hug.....

the thing about me is that I cry when i'm enraged. (which makes me no good in an argument)


or when i'm emotionally touched.



right now i'm both.

[nini]

41. I'm the same way... crying when I'm really angry

drives me nuts sometimes.

Hang in there - here's another :hug:

[bvar22]

46. Our Aristocracy has FAILED!!!

It is time for regime change.
Democrats protecting the RICH can take a hike too!!!!


The Ownership Society




The Democratic Party is a BIG TENT, but there is NO ROOM for those who advance the agenda of THE RICH (Corporate Owners) at the EXPENSE of LABOR and the POOR.
