Katrina 1/5 Insensitivity

August 29, 2006 – 2:20 pm

Today is the one year anniversary of Katrina. Now, perhaps many may find this insensitive, and take me to task, but, I think the media and the lefties, often one and the same, are over doing the issue. And, we know why. PPP. Petty partisan politics. Blame Bush. BDS. The media never made a huge […]

Consider. This is the al-Reuters photo I changed a wee bit for a lark on Monday: Running in sandals. But, let's see the AP version: Kinda funny how cameramen from both the AP and al-Reuters happened to be in the same place at the same time to capture the only person out in this bombed out […]
