So Junior wants to sit on Trent Lott's new porch.
Well, I guess we all have our priorities.

No one will ever know how many have died in NOLA and the Gulf coast. Bush & Co. will make sure the number remains hidden.

No one will ever know what the last moments of life were like for those trapped in nursing homes and hospitals with no hope of escape.

No one knows how many years it will take for those who were evacuated from NOLA to regain some semblance of normality, or psychological well-being.

And overseas, no one will ever know how many Americans and innocent Iraqi civilians have died for BushCo's profits.

But at least Junior knows what he wants. He wants to sit on good ole Trent's new porch. This man is such a disgrace that I don't know how anyone can be "proud to be an American." In 4 1/2 years, he's destroyed our self-image and how most of the world sees us.

Once Bush and his band of criminals are gone, who knows how long it will take us to earn back the trust of other great nations.

2. There was a weeping fellow named "Jackson" interviewed on TV...
he had tried to hold onto the roof and tree branches but his wife was swept away....on TV he kept repeating "She's all I had. She's all I had." it was one of the worst moments of this whole awful tragedy...later stories indicated he was reunited with his children and grandchildren but...there had been no sign of his wife.
anyway...my question is....could that be the poor man's wife?

3. Hardy Jackson lost his wife Tonette in either MS or AL. I think it was AL

That interview with Mr. Jackson was beyond heart wrenching. It was shown on the BBC and many people in Britian inquired about helping him.
:cry:
