The fundamental problem with Craig's complaints and your analysis, Howard,
is that neither is true.

Wow, just like the main stream media reports of New Orleans murders at the Astrodome and bodies rotting in the streets.

It is true Walt, I don't watch the news anymore... and that includes Fox news, I don't have the stomach for it.

My personal opinion is that the main stream media is afraid to show a community that is NOT dependent on the almighty government.

Wirt, if they were to do an analysis on the amount of time spent on New Orleans (heck and money it will cost the taxpayers), I am sure there would be no comparison.

But keep watching Wirt, someone has to keep us informed.
