Is bush backing off his "Marshal Law" plan ...?

Did the La Gov. win this battle?

by doing that.

4. On the contrary, his post-disaster/pre-emptive
strike on NO was a success.

5. Blanco, Nagin and Honore
they are going to come out of this the real heros, mark my words.

BTW: Honore's son is in the LA National Guard. Unfortunately he's stationed in Iraq fighting Bush's other folly.

6. Not only that - but Dems and intelligentsia are so angry - they've
taken to hitting "Big Oil" between the eyes.

Why bother anymore with shrub? He has no control or power over anything that happens.

As Emerald would say: "

BAM!



And they are not fooling around at all anymore. There is no point in arguing anything over with shrub. Absolutely no point.

said that things were working fine & there is no need for military takeover. Will look for threads when search is back up.

But we should ALL keep an eye on this because you know the slimy weasels will try to grab a total control, total blackout scenario any way they can.
