I commented earlier that there were *5* rail lines that intersect in NOLA.

As a port it would also have had a switching yard nearby somewhere -- and that switching yard would have had at least one switching engine to assemble outbound trains.

Makes you wonder whether the media is going to bother to report any sort of context or facts regarding what happened before and after this storm.

Malkin has a great post on another example of media bias.

The WoPo article this comes from still lays almost all blame at the feet of the feds--com equipment in Iraq, lack of understanding, lack of coordination, lack of communication, Bush in a cocoon, etc.

Washington Post == Pravda on the Potomac

none of this is going to matter. I've seen so many facts this week, you would have to be a fool to ignore them.

or motivated by something else.

you would have to be a fool to ignore them.

IOW, 99.999% of the moonbat left (Kinsley excepted)

You know, one would think the hurricane hit ONLY New Orleans.

Stupid frickin media.

Right now, I truly hate them all.

And I have a journalism degree that I now completely regret getting.

Well, I feel better about dropping out of jounalism school now.

You should. I had to go to grad school to get a real job.

I enlisted in the Air Force after I dropped out. The politics involved were hard to accept and I felt like enlisting would wash away some of the liberal dirt. Just in time for the Gulf War.

I'm so angry, so pissed off, I can barely type this.

Just visited DU. Those inhuman douchebags actually seem disappointed that more bodies haven't been found and they're crying cover up.

you know what? Fuck the left. I'm angry at the Republican party, but I'm not going to let these assholes win.

I'm voting straight "R" next year.

GOOD timing, DBS! ;) I still think you made the right decision.

LOL. Slu, WHY even GO to the DUmmies? Don't you already know what they're going to say? Just wait until Michael Moore gets started.

Yeah, I know...but sometimes I like to see what they're talking about.

But man, this was bad. I'm getting the impression that these *&&&^#ers would actually be gleeful if the body count was high.

Of COURSE they'd be happy about the deaths, just like they're thrilled every time a soldier or an innocent gets killed in Iraq. They don't give a flip about people's lives, it's the agenda that counts...and the more people who end up dead, the more chance they think they'll have at winning an election.

But I think they're wrong, at least where Louisiana is concerned. I sincerely doubt Katrina is going to help the Democrats in LA one freakin' bit regardless of the body count. Local folks are going to remember who was in charge when Katrina happened.

High body count == good propaganda
Low body count == Leave it to Beaver reruns

The MSM is actually viewing themselves as "patriotic" by ignoring these facts, along with helping terrorists.

Those rethuglikkkan alligators are hiding the bodies!

May I point out that the yard in NOLA also would contain several empty box cars?

OK, I hear people complaining already. But it's the warm shit theory; Warm Shit is warm shit, and smells like it. But in a choice between getting close to the warm shit or freezing to death....
