No joke -- Mr. Bill DID know that the levees were in danger of failing.

I hate them so much.

5. Heard on MSNBC- Corps of engineers had been begging $

The Army corps of engineers has been begging for the funds to upgrade the levy for years- as early as the late 60's. They never were budgeted the funds needed.

6. Interesting case of psyops? or am I seeing too much?

The Chicago Tribune produces a daily tabloid-style tabloid, which gets thrust into the hands of commuters at the El stations every morning (I always refuse). But my eye was caught by the photo on the cover of today's edition...who does this look like to you?

In this case they used the gag to show that people would die from levee failure.
