I thought this post was about the hurricane approaching the Gulf coast, not the hurricane threatening us all in the McSame campaign.

They are stopping free evacuation operations as of 8 am Sunday morning. If you are too late, and you don’t have a car, you will be stuck. If you don’t watch TV (because it is so stupid or you don’t have a TV), how are you going to know?

Quite to the contrary, I think she will last. She has to; otherwise they are conceding the election the same as McGovern when people discovered he blew his first decision out of the box, his people did not vet the VP choice carefully enough.

I actually think that McBoss thinks he can fix her “brother-in-law-gate or troopergate” problem by sending the Feds in to tell the locals how this is going to go down. He expects them all to then fall neatly in line. I don’t think he’s on the outs with Stevens, and I believe Stevens still has some weight to throw around there. Are there any Dems even in sight in Alaska?

Lives lost in NOLA next week really are on Lieberman’s dreadful head as much as anyone else’s. His behavior has been absolutely criminal, in covering up the criminal cronyism that followed Katrina.

He is, perhaps, one of the worst public servants ever to grace our land.

I think the GOP will struggle mightily to get through the convention with her on the ticket, but I don’t think she will last, no.

In CA, you also mean the parts along the shore line that have a tendency to landslide straight out to the ocean, don’t you? Bad enough parts of the coast highway are directly on the fault line, as are schools and other stuff.

Need to relocate the people in those lands. It’ll be hard, but it has to be done. There are some places where people shouldn’t live. That’s not so much NOLA, but the lands that protected it. (Also lots of California lands which are built in places which will keep having fires. Never should have allowed houses to be built there.)
