Video of the NOLA baby that died
It's in the MSNBC archives.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9269453/

Scroll down to Video - Sept. 1: Chaos & Desperation

She holds her dieing baby while making her desperate plea for help in the Desperation in New Orleans video link.

EVERY LAST DAMNED TELEVISION OUTLET SHOULD PLAY THIS VIDEO PRIOR TO THE DAMNED "BULLHORN MOMENT" TONIGHT, THEN REPORT THAT THE BABY DIED AFTER THE DAMNED PROPAGANDA!!!

9. actually, you may be on to something there....
since normal "Street protests" don't seem to get the attention they used to,
maybe we should all start having ROOFTOP protests!

12. Sad, sad, sad
good thing the baby's mother didn't look for food for her or she might be in a lock up right now with the 70 year old lady. This is too sick.

18. September 1 countdown
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Look how hot he is. He is not waking up very easy. I am not—this is not about low income, it‘s not about rich people, poor people. It is about people.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: We need help, sir. We really do. We need help. They‘re not doing nothing, they‘re not telling us nothing, they‘re not doing nothing.

Look at all of these old people (INAUDIBLE) without their medication, their wheelchairs. We need help, sir. We really need help.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Look at these babies. These babies (INAUDIBLE).

This is not right. This is not right.

6. He is responsible
for the deaths of children here and countless abroad. What can he say tonight that I would want to hear besides resigning. I can not look at his face and i do not want to hear his voice.

20. I can't get the video
but I remember the mom, I think. The baby was about maybe 12 mos. old? A white child? She mentioned she was having trouble waking him up?

I have been wondering about that baby. Where did you read he died? I heard there were a number more, as many as five, but I haven't read anything definitive.

Actually, there isn't very much definitive yet about anything over there. Just questions.

25. Okay, thanks.
This is going to be a very illustrative piece of video and we should all watch it every year just like we have to watch the WTC collapsing.

Never forget.

26. How do we know the baby died?
Edited on Thu Sep-15-05 08:13 PM by slor
Was there a follow up story? I did not see anything on the msnbc page.

On edit: I just saw the info. that the child has passed from life. I guess deep down, I just wanted you to be wrong.
