>>>Of course. I would not have replied otherwise. No where in Rush's article does he claim a government conspiracy. In fact he states several times he is NOT suggesting any conspiracy. He was pointing out how the PRESS, not the "gubmint" may be trying to use the hurricane news to shape the Republican convention schedule and news coverage.

>>>And Mike did not see (or conveniently left out) the part of the levee article that explained that the levee did not break, the water flowed over it and that it was not one of the Corps of Engineers levees, it was a smaller. locally maintained levee. To read Mike's comment, you would think that it was Katrina all over again.

>>You are correct, the levee did not break, there was just water running over it. My mistake. I have been monitoring the news throughout the day (the wrong news station <g>) and am relieved that although it is serious it's no Katrina.

I do watch Fox News sometimes for comic relief, as long as I'm in a good mood. Today it has been my evil vice, CNN.

Tonight I am looking forward to Paul Ryan's speech. I suspect he is in a little over his head but this guy is the voice of the current Republican party. I honestly don't hate Mitt but he is completely overshadowed by his running mate. So let's hear what he has to say.
