It's hard for me to be positive, but let's try for the sake of our sanity, to find some good things that have come out of this disaster:
-The press seems to have gotten their balls back.
Ted Koppel, Anderson Cooper, Keith Olbermann, Shepard Smith (!?) and Bob Schieffer all have gotten tough.
Ted Koppel to the FEMA head when he pleaded ignorance to the convention center evacuees: "Don't you have tv's?" Love it!
A few months ago these people would've been fired if one viewer wrote in to complain. Poor Dan Rather. You know he's itching to be in waist deep flood water complaining about the government.
-The class system that exists in this country is beginning to show itself.
Some rich people can't even pretend to relate to the poor, see Barbara Bush's recent comments. How dare she!
-The cronyism in this country is being revealed.
How does a horse guy get to be head of FEMA? That's an insult to all Americans. And Haliburton in the Gulf Coast! They are so blatant you actually have to laugh.
