15. Well the Pentagon was "upset" with the reporting |
|
from the past few days. Cable news was forced into line. I'll bet hard cash that all the truth telling reporters from the past few days were told to shape up now or be fired.

13. I said this would happen yesterday |
|
as soon as the smirk arrived it would be back to business as usual. Although the reporters just scared off Laura so we may still have some honesty out there. Looking foward to Olberman and Cooper tonight, they seemed to have had it yesterday, lets hope they are still on track.

21. Nothing from either place, i saw a long shot of the Dome earlier |
|
but nothing on the convention center. What i did see however was the Astrodome and the media gushing about how things are great there but---they could turn to shit at some point.

22. I suspect once the relief arrived, they stopped everything from |
|
being filmed because they would show dead bodies, filth, people dying, the actual results of their negligence for all the world to see again.
