Thanks for the link to the Democrats report. I looked for it yesterday after I read about it, but of course I couldn’t find it because the traditional media don’t actually link to things.

I need it because I am working on my first campaign! My friend David Gereighty is running for Louisiana’s first congressional district seat against Bobby Jindal.

I am so excited about working on my first campaign. Thanks for inspiring me every day! You women are truly and inspiration.

Haven’t been the same since. Last year at this time I spent with my parents watching New Orleans on television. My parents were vacationing with us when the storm hit. Their house was on Bellaire Drive in New Orleans. It is gone. And every day that has gone by since has been cloaked in the knowledge that our government killed a unique cultural jewel and many innocent people and pets.</p> I watched Spike Lee’s documentary this week.

The videos are second to none, and I am so horrified by what remains of the devastation and how little has been done to return our NOLA to even a shadow of its previous life. No, it wasn’t a perfect place, yes there were problems in government, in the schools system, health care delivery and in all the other pesky areas such as crime and corruption. Same as nearly every where else. But this city is one of OURS, and these people are our brothers and sisters and fellow citizens and our national government let them down big time. No new sentiments or words here, but thanks for returning Katrina and NOLA and the surrounding areas to our attention time and again.</p> How great to start the music and then read on…..I wasn’t able to take the time to thank Scout for her amazing work during the most recent Katrina post.

OT, ET then there’s this:

Speaking at a boisterous rally for Israel near the United Nations headquarters this afternoon, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton said she supported taking “whatever steps are necessary” to defend Israel against Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran and Syria in the military conflict in the Middle East.

Senator Clinton, addressing a crowd of several thousand people, said the United States must show “solidarity and support” for Israel in the face of the “unwarranted, unprovoked” seizure of three Israeli soldiers by members of Hamas and Hezbollah, which she referred to as among “the new totalitarians of the 21st century.”

“We will stand with Israel because Israel is standing for American values as well as Israeli ones,” said Mrs. Clinton, who was joined by two dozen political and religious leaders on a stage along 42nd Street.
