WWLTV was reporting a levee breach by 9:30am >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
WWL TV reported on their website on 8/29 no later than 9:35am:

.. A LEVEE BREACH OCCURRED ALONG THE INDUSTRIAL CANAL AT TENNESSE STREET. 3 TO 8 FEET OF WATER IS EXPECTED DUE TO THE BREACH...LOCATIONS IN THE WARNING INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO ARABI AND 9TH WARD OF NEW ORLEANS.




And a posting on one of the blogs (wunderground or nola.com)

LA governor says water rising 1 ft per hour in NO. Major breeching of levees


This was just hours after landfall. HOURS.

And where was the Propagandist? Eating cake with McCain in AZ. And the next day, when the FLOODING was being SHOWN on LIVE TV where was the Propagandist? Playing guitar in CA.

1. We have a lot of this in the archives
They won't get way with the spin. Bush is going down with Katrina - nothing changes that.

2. Just keeping it fresh in peoples' minds.
And, look at Chertoff!

Chertoff didn't know about the people stranded at the Superdome and the Convention Center until THURSDAY AFTERNOON! He learned about it when he was interviewed on NPR!

Criminally negligent!

5. Katrina will be the neocons undoing
There is too much compelling evidence: video of their lies, bodies floating in the streets... Yet many months later the Bush administration has not followed up; there are thousands without homes or jobs. This is not Iraq, which most Americans couldn't care less about. This is the US of A, in a part of which the Bushites couldn't care less about, because most of New Orleans votes Democratic and its citizens are mostly Afro-American. But even though the Bushites don't care, the American people do care. They have concluded (or will conclude) that Bush/Brownie is responsible for the terrible failure of FEMA to respond to this disaster in which thousands of Americans lost their lives due to their incompetence. And the open sore that is New Orleans will remind us of that monumental failure for many years.

The neocons can get elected and are very good at making money for themselves and their supporters.... but they suck at making government work for the people they are elected to serve.
