I have a feeling that anyone who hopes for a progressive swing in American politics as a result of this disaster will be disappointed. At best, it's a temporary halt to the drive the downsize government and 'starve the beast'.

Bush's supporters remain mostly loyal, and after a couple of years of propaganda they'll be praising his hurricane leadership.

Sandman speaks the truth.

I read an ABC poll yesterday.

46 percent APPROVE of Bush's handling of the hurricane.

That's higher than his approval rating before the hurricane.

I don't get it. And the media has been hammering him over it. What is wrong with this ****ing country?

Humanity can be both rational and irrational. Being irrational is a lot of fun in the short-run, but in the long-run it will **** you over.

Someone who died of thirst or exposure looks different to someone who had a beam of a house fall on them or drowned. I doubt they'll autopsy everyone though, if the 10000 number that's being bandied about is correct.

I ask because on moday they said it was not so bad, that the hurricane lost intensity and moved from new orleans, and now they are saying it is a big disaster, 10.000 dead, so what happened?

Short summary. Hurricane hit Biloxi rather New orleans dead on, however storm surge (rain water and whipped up water) caused levee breaks in new Orleans causing large swathes of the city to be flooded by 6-20ft of water. More people than originally thought did not evacuate and rescue was quite slow so death toll is rising.

Well the city got soused the day after the storm. Not during the storm.
