credit to dt conservatives. they at least can stand to hear a contrary opinion on occasion and still manage to come back.

Arl Jim and I live in the same building..We are sometimes the only two in the elevator and it's like that old cartoon.."Morning Fred"..you know..I can't remember the other chicken/rooster/dog

Never seen anything like this. Always tornados in the spring but it is amazing the lethal nature of them this spring especially with warning systems and horns in place.

i believe it's sam.

saw that barack will be in joplin sunday. he's cutting his ireland trip short due to the ash cloud from iceland.
if any of this is already posted elsewhere, my apologies...


when i first started seeing pictures, the first thing i thought of was beirut. the trees looked like trees from fredericksburg during our civil war. just brutal.

I agree with this..Left or right Prez..who wants to see him circling in a helicoptor? I mean..those poor people need tangible help, not moral support.

That's ridiculous. Those people need all types of support. The President represents this country whether we like it or not.

Not showing up until Sunday is poor form...especially when you're partying in Ireland and England.

In both Tuscaloosa and Joplin, the Director and Deputy Director of FEMA were both there within 24 hours (I think it was 12).

Both areas were declared disaster areas by the President at FEMA's request before they even left Washington for the site (as opposed to previously, when FEMA heads waited to get on-site before requesting the declaration).

The MO senators and congressmen toured Joplin yesterday. The Democrats flew in helicopters, the Republicans went on the ground. This is:
A: Too early in the process, they got in the way!
B: Too late in the process, they ignored the citizens!
C: It doesn't matter, they are not the President!
