    I really and truthfully hate responding to you, but there we have it.
    My entire post wasn't about the content, but straight up about the quality of direction of your source. The same problem you always have about never following through, and half ass regurgitating here shit you see and hear about whatever half baked nonsense you happen to read from your looney tunes websites that give you the secret to ultimate knowlege.

    You're a fucking poser.

    Also, it's bulletin.

    shut up idiot you dont know what you are talking about. now matt drudge is a conspiracy theorist of all people.

    Update:
    "In New Orleans' French Quarter, water pooled in the streets from the driving rain, but the city appeared to have escaped the catastrophic flooding that forecasters had predicted."

            Hurricane Katrina began to lose power dramatically as it moved toward New Orleans, and has been downgraded by the National Weather Service to a Category 3 hurricane, with maximum sustained winds of 135 MPH. This is still a dangerous storm, and there remains a possibility that New Orleans' levee system will be breached, but this is getting less likely by the hour. At present, it appears that the city will sustain damage from wind and rain, but if the levees hold, it will not be destroyed.

            New Orleans was placed under mandatory evacuation orders yesterday, and a million people have left the area.
            New Orleans will be just fine, as far as not being under 20 feet of water.

                    A massive break in the 17th Street levee is flooding the city of New Orleans. Jefferson and Plaquemine Parishes are under martial law. Nobody is being allowed into the city. The 200ft wide break is expected to continue flooding until the water level in the city reaches that of Lake Ponchatrain. Huge sandbags are being airlifted to the city in an effort to stem the break.

                    Had Army Corps of Engineers budgets not been cut for this area, and forward planning been done beginning a year ago when it became clear that hurricanes were becoming more severe, this catastrophe might have been averted. The sandbags needed should have been available in the area, not hundreds of miles away.

                    Meanwhile, Jefferson Parish is full of gas leaks, the water system has been breached and water needs to be boiled, pumping stations have failed, snakes have come up into populated areas and there are loose dogs and cats roaming everywhere. Area residents are calling it a fight for survival.

                    There is a possibility that the primary infrastructure of the city will fail and water will need to be pumped out if and when the levees can be restored. If this is the case, the city will remain under water for weeks or months, and, in a worst-case scenario, even longer.

                    A comment from Whitley Strieber: "It is past time for this country to accept that global warming is real, that it has immediate consequences in the form of extreme weather, and that this must be planned for. The fact that forward planning was intentionally dropped for this region is indefensible."

                      Wow, the pictures on CNN are quite shocking. I see house roof-tops, the flooding is worse than I thought. I wonder if anyone that plays TW, lives near New Orleans.

                      I guess we can't underestimate the awesome force of Nature.

                          Martial Law Declared - CBS News

                          Situation Deteriorating In Hurricane Aftermath
                          CBS News - Tuesday, August 30, 2005 10:37 AM

                          Situation Deteriorating In Hurricane Aftermath New Orleans, LA (CBS) - Martial Law has been declared in parts of New Orleans as conditions continued to deteriorate. Water levels in The Big Easy and it's suburbs are rising at dangerous levels and officials stated they don't know where the water is coming from. Residents are being urged to get out of New Orleans in any way they can as officials fear "life will be unsustainable" for days or even weeks.

                          Gulf Coast residents were staggered by the body-blow inflicted by Hurricane Katrina, with more than a million people sweltering without power, miles of lowlands under water and unconfirmed reports of as many 80 people dead in Mississippi alone.

                          "We heard one report of 30 dead at just one apartment complex on the beach in Biloxi," said CBS News Correspondent Jim Acosta. Much of the devastation is being blamed on a storm surge.
