[Field Of Dreams]

people on roof tops ... still raining there.

1. On my God -what's happening!

[whistle]

2. How did that happen? I mean, how did those people get back into that area

4. It's not NOLA...it's Abbeville, LA

I was down in Abbeville back in June. Flat....very Flat country.

6. This area appears to be Southwest part of LA

not near New Orleans ... closer to wear Rita made landfall.

3. They had a Parish official on briefly...

terrible flooding there ... some footage of flooded areas ... trying to rescue people ... not a lot of other details.

Looked like it was raining pretty good.

5. MSM babbling about Texas all day when the real devastation was in La AGAIN

Really mad about this.

13. Yes.

I noticed that this morning....all the reporters, etc. in TX, when to me it looked like the shit really went down on the east side, i.e. Louisiana AGAIN....

and no one was talking about it, at all. Except for Lake Charles (I think that is it? Is that in LA?) .

7. What's happening is that FEMA doesn't give a shit about Louisiana.

They're too busy hanging out with Bush, Governor Goodhair, and Tom Delay in Texas.

They're havin' a back-slappin' good-ole-boys party in the Lone Star State.

[whistle]

12. And drinking.....

[Field Of Dreams]

8. My fear is that the weather still looked bad enough from video...

that it will really hamper rescue efforts ... supposed to rain there at least through tomorrow.

11. This is a slow moving storm. There is more rain to come

That is why I am wary of the "dodge the bullet" talk until the storm actually dissipates.

9. It's almost in the middle of the LA coast.

A lot of it looks marshy. :-(

10. The hurricane moved east, MSM unprepared for that

But that's what weather does.

As the rain continues--and it will--there will be more problems along the LA/TX border where the storm is centered. There will also be more problems in NOLA as water levels rise. The MSM will have to move their big people back to LA.
