AP putting out Katrina timeline that blurs reality of Bush inaction.

Hurricane Katrina changed everything.
Oopsie.
these wingnuts are totally and utterly insane
The shit's getting so surreal anymore, that I'm looking forward to albertchampion to tell me what's next...
Oh, I needed that laugh!
.
so when the actual Moon is a cresent it is being controlled by the 'islamofascists'?
On the other hand, I think there are a lot of southerners who would find sharia law much to their liking.
I always liked the SC state flag.
Can we no longer eat crescent rolls at dinner? And are croissants doubly bad?
so Bin Laden now controls the moon!

Well, they *are* lunatics, after all.

They're Dolby bad.
And now we understand why "moonbat" is such a devastating epithet.
" Can we no longer eat crescent rolls at dinner? "
They're called Freedom Rolls now, k?
Why do semi-circles hate America? :~(
It's all adding up.
bin Laden controls Moon, who owns Washington Times and controls G.H.W. Bush.

Cheney on CNN just now "with every storm we'll learn more". Hurricans hitting parts of the US coast at this time of year is not a new phenomenon.
Perhaps he meant "with each storm we'll learn just how inet and unprepared this Adminsitration really is".
Just to be sure, I only bought the mini ones @ Sam's Club. They're kinda football-shaped... like the world.
This new learning amazes me, Sir Bedevere.
I think by now most of us have seen the pictures of the school buses under water in a parking lot somewhere in NO.
Has anyone heard an explaination for that?
I swear to god I'm not trolling here - I keep hearing "the buses, the buses!" I don't know that loading 2,000 people on those wouldnt've made a hell of a lot of difference, but it'd be nice to know if there was a good reason for that.
They will do absolutely anything to keep the subject away from w and his many fuck ups.
I can't stand Dick.
Screw the Democratic party and their Chairman. They are all corporate whores just like Bush. The party should be blocking everything that Bush does and calling for impeachment for the twin disasters of Iraq and New Orleans.
Have to go. But want to say, I enjoyed meeting Steve Simmel & Athena (saw you're both here) at Eschacon. NOTED: Athena is quite a babe & I say this in a nonsexist (implicitly sexist) sort of way.

The chocolate ones are.

Carter -- right back at you!
What a great damn weekend!
Sal P- no gas, no drivers, no keys, no organization. Pick one.
And Steve: I arose at 4:00 a.m. and started sewing at 5:00 a.m. I worked pretty steadily till around 10:00 or eleven. Even missed a thread or two .
This evening we will take my daughter out for some great northern Italian cuisine with a fine peasanty red wine. That's why I'm here instead of enjoying the great outdoors, which are highly overrated to my citified mind.
We should respond to the bus claim by showing any number -- thousands or millions -- of military vehicles parked in nearby states during the catastrophe.
Or parked in Iraq.
I don't have an opinion about the mayor's performance; he's not my mayor. But competently or otherwise, he at least WORKED AND TRIED to do something.
Same goes for the governor.
Guitar boy didn't do squat until Shepard Smith's "WTF."

The Onion may have discovered that Rumsfeld is a mullah mole:

and show trials?

Once again, the left ignores counterarguments to the fact that they want to honor the Flight 93 hijackers.
Why is Bush's support so high? 38, 39%.
Iraq was not only based on a lie, but is a failure. Its a de facto Islamic State already.
Katrina shows they are not capable of dealing with the sort of massive WMD terror strike that Bush used to scare people into voting for him. Whats he got left that he has actually done? nothing!
sheep's bladders.

Great. Now the administration is going to outlaw sheep's bladders, and will send in what's left of the National Guard to remove them all from San Francisco.

A leftist loony a bit posting here earlier: "I still say the death toll will be 10,000, whether they lie about it or not." And you laugh at me?
You folks are really gonna be pissed off when NOLA gets put back together and folks move back (even the poor ones). Heh?
Whats he got left that he has actually done? nothing!
Tax cuts for the rich, and deregulation and welfare for corporations.
With all that extra money, they're bound to be extra-generous to the Katrina relief effort.

I'd say the spirit of IX/XI is still alive.

Steve Simels--thank you. My first reaction to GOPert's post was, 'huh?'
Simmel: forget to tell you when we talked that I've only recently become tuned in to Smashing Pumpkins. Luv their song 1989 (or is it '79).
Now, that I see Watertiger in on, let me publicly say that she is quite a babe also. Maybe we ought to have a calender women of Eschaton, tastefully done of course
Maybe if S.C. could change it from a crescent moon, to a moonpie! What's more American than moonpies?
Uh-oh! The citizens of South Carolina had better get their shit together because "Drownie" is in D.C. in charge of response for this one: Hurricane Watch Posted for SE Coast
Having a large Islamic crescent in Pennsylvania is honoring the twisted ideals that the hijackers supported.

1) I wonder how many volunteers you would get to drive them.
2) NOLA mayor might have fucked up, but it doesn't absolve Bush and the Feds in fucking up.
3) Given how people weren't allowed to cross bridges because of certain sheriffs, would they have been able to get out?

Where do you get the notion that we want to honor the hijackers?
You crazy moon lovers! (See appropriate This Modern World from a couple years ago.)
I think we need our own school of Leftist Evangelicals to make crazy assed humanitarian proclamations as paralells to scripture ....Don't we have any theatrics anymore ? Is Mike Moore our only out there performer ? ( as if he were even that out there )
Imagine ,some hilarious Fire and Brimstone Preacher calling out the tyrany of the repugs, seeing the coming of the Seventh Sign in the form of the Hydra of Bush Cheney and Rumsfeld. What more proof do we need ?
We good spiritualits don't have to sit and wait for the end of years, we can fight back . If lucifer is resting in Washington , is it not our duty to drive him Hence?
And no one noticed the calander re; Cindy Sheehan closes up camp , and God sends a fuckin 'once every 500 years' Hurricane Straight at Texas?
AS portents go...

Does that means that God is going to punish SC for putting the crescent in their flag?
Now, that I see Watertiger in on, let me publicly say that she is quite a babe also.
I've noticed that the top two most-viewed pics in my EschaCon flickr album are of watertiger. Just sayin'...

I think it is the National Review (or one of the wingnut magazines) that has a picture of the busses on the cover.
The count is around 210 busses. So how many were working? How many had gas? Drivers? Where would they go? If in theory they would have loaded them up and headed for the hills, that's still only 10k people, or about 5% of the people that rode the hurricane out.

I haven't seen anyone here "support" it or not support it. It's just a memorial. Please point to any post where anyone has expressed the slightest vested interest in the shape of this memorial.

The way this administration continues to dishonor the victims of 9/11 is utterly reprehensible.
The crescent is also used as a heraldic symbol in some Slavic countries. However, this usage is not affiliated on any kind with Islam. The roots of Slavic crescent can be traced up to the old Slavic pagan beliefs.
simels ...
Answering your Q from below ....
I was out early today and for an hour just now. It's very nice, yes, but I want some rain! I'm beginning to feel like that Sarah Miles character in "White Mischief" who goes to the door in the morning and says, "Oh Christ, not another fucking beautiful day."
In this verse is threatened the vengeance of God on the wicked unbelieving Israelites, who were God's visible people, and who lived under the means of grace; but who, notwithstanding all God's wonderful works towards them, remained (as ver. 28.) void of counsel, having no understanding in them. Under all the cultivations of heaven, they brought forth bitter and poisonous fruit; as in the two verses next preceding the text. The expression I have chosen for my text, Their foot shall slide in due time, seems to imply the following doings, relating to the punishment and destruction to which these wicked Israelites were exposed.
1. That they were always exposed to destruction; as one that stands or walks in slippery places is always exposed to fall. This is implied in the manner of their destruction coming upon them, being represented by their foot sliding. The same is expressed, Psalm 73:18. "Surely thou didst set them in slippery places; thou castedst them down into destruction."
2. It implies, that they were always exposed to sudden unexpected destruction. As he that walks in slippery places is every moment liable to fall, he cannot foresee one moment whether he shall stand or fall the next; and when he does fall, he falls at once without warning: Which is also expressed in Psalm 73:18, 19. "Surely thou didst set them in slippery places; thou castedst them down into destruction: How are they brought into desolation as in a moment!"
3. Another thing implied is, that they are liable to fall of themselves, without being thrown down by the hand of another; as he that stands or walks on slippery ground needs nothing but his own weight to throw him down.
4. That the reason why they are not fallen already, and do not fall now, is only that God's appointed time is not come. For it is said, that when that due time, or appointed time comes, their foot shall slide. Then they shall be left to fall, as they are inclined by their own weight. God will not hold them up in these slippery places any longer, but will let them go; and then at that very instant, they shall fall into destruction; as he that stands on such slippery declining ground, on the edge of a pit, he cannot stand alone, when he is let go he immediately falls and is lost.
You're supporting the giant crescent "memorial"
No actually we're memorial-shape-neutral, idiot.
We're just laughing at cluess morons like you who get worked up over trivial things.
wignuts are so fucking stupid!
Hey, can I have a neighbor to have a beer with who's down to earth and who went to Yale on a legacy admission and ducked out of wartime military service because his dad, who he hates, was tightly connected with powerful people who hated him, who then ran three companies into the ground and emerged vastly richer, who then married a woman who ran over her boyfriend with the tearful apologies of the local police, who then spat tobacco juice disdainfully in the back of the Harvard School of Business classrooms, then earned the respect of fellow party members by enthusiastically standing on the windpipe of anybody who hesitated to throw open the doors of power to him?
'Cause my neighbor ain't like that at all, and I'm thinkin' it's my fault.
NTodd: 2) NOLA mayor might have fucked up, but it doesn't absolve Bush and the Feds in fucking up.
Hey, we agree on something.
Please note the 'might'. I'm still not convinced Nagin fucked up, even though he is a Bush donor and endorsed Blanco's GOP opponent.
Fact is, this clearly is a regional disaster and that's what the Feds are for. Where would the buses have gone, given the disaster area is the size of Great Britain?

The fact is that New Orleans has suffered due to the corruption of the Democrats and their lack of backbone. They refused to evacuate the city before the hurricane.
Bush pleads for 'spirit of 9/11'
Translation: Bush pleads for people to remember the false image of him being a "strong leader" after 9/11.
A crescent is also the shape of a CROISSANT, which is FRENCH.
All you liberals... enjoy tasty breakfasts! I hope you're happy!
Are you guys actually debating this Ruppert?
People ask about the school busses in NO, but nobody mentions how they were supposed to get drivers for them.
3) Given how people weren't allowed to cross bridges because of certain sheriffs, would they have been able to get out?
Don't forget the huge traffic jam leading out of the city until they shut the bridges and causeways down on Sunday.
Also, I have read that FEMA wanted those busses left there for after-the-hurricane evacuations. I haven't seen any news reports verifying that, however.
Green is the proper Muslim flag
Ooo the wingnuts better start hating grass now.
The crescent used to be a symbol of the Byzantine Empire. After the Fall of Constantinople in 1453 it was taken as a symbol by the Ottoman Empire. The crescent is now often used to symbolize the Islamic faith. However, it should be noted that the crescent was not a symbol used for Islam by Muhammad or any other early Muslim rulers, as the Islam is, in fact, against appointing "Holy Symbols". Despite that fact many islamic nations and charities use the symbol on their flags or logos (e.g. Pakistan, The Red Crescent.) In this manner it could be argued that its modern usage is meant to signify identity and for devout muslims brotherhood.
Like Gary the Numbskull , I too am afraid of many shapes. Since I was cured of my fear of heights , I've recently become fearful instead of widths.
Nothing however can overcome my anxiety around triangles. You'll notice , no where did I use that letter that appears after "u" anywhere in this posting . Can't .
So take it easy on our Retarded Troll , he's scared of crescents ,( the more I look at them , the more I get the willies ) . Me , I've also come to be pretty afraid of Crosses too .

Yes, I know this is OT:

It deals with interpreting certain images psychologically and/or symbolically.
Interesting.
A crescent is the shape produced when from a circular disk the disk of a circle which is a little smaller and tangent on the inside to the larger circle, is cut. It might also be described it as the shape the lit side of a sphere takes on if, in respect to the viewer, the light source is behind and to one side of the sphere (as in a crescent moon). Depending on the nature of which way the 'horns' (the pointed edges at the top of the arc) face denote whether or not the usage is to be taken in an active or passive state. Thus, pointing left ']' denotes a waxing moon and thus an active moon, whilst 'C' would infer the opposite.
The fact is that New Orleans has suffered due to the corruption of the Democrats
and their lack of backbone. They refused to evacuate the city before the
hurricane.

Blow it out your ass.

Don't look at me...
Alien Apocalypse is on Sci-Fi at 7 - I recommend.
The crescent symbol is also used to represent the alchemical usage of silver and, by inference, can also be used to represent qualities that silver possesses. (Alchemy and Symbols, By M. E. Glidewell, Epsilon.)
Hmmm...
I guess a whole lot of Christian iconography which includes the moon in various phases are now out.

Thanks....that rant really brightened

I like Blanco. The only reason she won though is that the wingnuts and fundies, who are the only ones who vote in numbers in my appethetic state, couldn't bring themselves to vote for her GOP opponent, who is Indian and very dark skinned.
The fact is that New Orleans has suffered due to the corruption of the Democrats and their lack of backbone. They refused to evacuate the city before the hurricane.
Incorrect. Nagin (a Dem in the Zell Miller mold) ordered the first evac of NOLA in history. First it was voluntary, back on the 26th, then it was mandatory, on the 28th. Get your facts straight, asshole.
They celebrate St. Patrick's Day in New Orleans with a parade and they throw green beads, drink green beer, and wear green wigs. I guess Malkin will soon start screeching that they are Islamo-Irishists.
The vast majority of Americans are totally unaware of the wingnuts and fundies.
Rasmussen: Since 9/11, Most say U.S. has changed for the worse.
As the fourth anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks approaches, just 26% of Americans say their nation has changed for the better since those attacks. A Rasmussen Reports survey found that 54% now believe those attacks changed America for the worse.
Took the other 74% this long to figure out that things are kinda fucked?

DENVER -
Federal Emergency Management Agency Director Michael Brown sent a candid e-mail to family and friends this week as he was becoming the center of criticism of the handling of the Hurricane Katrina disaster.
"I don't mind the negative press (well, actually, I do, but I try to ignore it) but it is really wearing out the family," Brown wrote. "No wonder people don't go into public service. This country is devouring itself, the 24-hour news cycle is numbing our ability to think for ourselves," the Rocky Mountain News reported Saturday.
Brown was relieved of his command of the onsite relief efforts Friday amid increasing criticism over the sluggishness of the agency's response and questions over his background.
"It's horrible," said Mary Ann Karns, an Oklahoma lawyer who once worked with Brown in the Edmond, Okla., city government and got the e-mail addressed. "He does not deserve this as a human being."
The buses.
I think the plan was always that the people without trans were to go to the Superdome.
Nobody could have imagined it would take days instead of hours to get food and water to them and start getting them out.
THAT is the fuck up.
