Has anything changed?
It's just what I saw. Hope it doesn't offend anyone.

1. No, sorry.
I'm not offended and I understand the source of your imagination.

But I see a man carried respectfully and carefully by another man, with five or six other people there assisting.

This picture to me, is the exact opposite of the Lindsey England (sp?) debacle.

This picture to me, is awe-inspiring.

2. I see something different.
Yes, that poor man is finally getting help. But it's too little, too late. That man should have been evacuated the friday or saturday before the hurricane hit. I see an administration that has flagrantly violated humane treatment from the top to the bottom. We wouldn't have had to have half a dozen people in fatigues carrying that poor old sick man. Where is the dignity of having to wait it out in hunger and fear, long after the disaster has hit. What was it- day 16 that they finally found him?

3. Yes
I do see that, and perhaps Ms. England is there in spirit BUT the men and women (if one of the people off screen is female) who are there are doing the best they can and they didn't have anything to do with the late response.

So my concern is that you disparage these hard-working people when you bring her into the picture. Because SHE was entrusted with the health and safety of her prisoners and SHE violated that.

Maybe a picture of Mr. Bush strumming or eating cake in the background would work for me.

Then again, when you manipulate images it becomes art, and it is yours and expresses your feelings.
