WTW: Some Good News From Katrina

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

Hey, y’all. These folks ain’t no white trash, but I reckoned I would pass along some good news:

RALEIGH, N.C. — Two evacuees from Hurricane Katrina’s flooding lost everything, including plans they had made for a spring wedding, but they kept their hope alive.

Trazjae Clark and DeShawn Moss were brought to the Raleigh shelter for people evacuated from the Gulf Coast and decided not to delay their wedding.

"We were already close, but this time has brought us even closer," Clark said. "We are so blessed and feel the time is right to begin our lives together as we rebuild from our losses."

Thanks to volunteers at the shelter, the couple’s plan for a civil ceremony has turned into a full church wedding.

The couple plans to exchange vows Saturday at Baptist Grove Church in Raleigh. Both are seeking jobs in Raleigh. A wedding shop is donating the bride’s dress and groom’s tuxedo and a florist is giving the flowers. The volunteers are looking for a sponsor for a reception.

That’s actually pretty nice, eh?

WTW: Ophelia Lives (still)

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

Hey, y’all, Jebediah here. We ‘uns are still waiting for Ophelia to come on shore and play. Still. I mean, what’s the problem with this broad? She’s acting like a timid virgin. She just needs to get on with the game, and come ashore, get ‘er done, and skeddadle. But NOOOooooooo! She be a teasin’.

But w’ere ready down here in Redneckistan. We have packed the Confederate flags that we fly when Howard "scream" Dean comes on down to the South. For a change, the muddy pick up trucks will be cleaned. Pour some Palmolive on them, they get all nice and clean. Might even be some paint under thar. And the quarter million dollar combines, which we only drive 2 weeks a year and will put up against them Blue State ‘beemers any day, are safely ensonsed in the red barns.

Once she comes on shore, she will be a wildcat, like a virgin gone wild in one of them Spring Break videos:

Ophelia’s position at dawn was centered about 60 miles south of Wilmington. Its latest wobble seemed to be steering it on a course just east of Morehead City, too, forecasters said, and heading straight for Cape Lookout. But its precise track remains uncertain.

The storm’s creeping pace — up to a mere 4 mph this morning — means that it will scrape along the coast and the Outer Banks for about two days, causing power outages, flooding, and possibly severe beach erosion, forecasters say.

As my good buddy Puppy Blender quoted:

Boards on the window
Mail by the door
What would anybody leave so quickly for?
Ophelia
Where have you gone?

The old neighborhood just ain’t the same
Nobody knows just what became of
Ophelia
Tell me, what went wrong

Can never go wrong with The Band.

Quick thought

How does John Roberts keep a straight face while sitting there listening to Demoratic Senators bloviate? It is a measure that he is SCOTUS material, since he hasn’t giggled, smirked, tittered, laughed, guffawed, or yawned.

Belgians In on the Rescue Business

A big water based rescue by the Belgian military:

Authorities in Belgium launched a rescue operation after a couple were spotted ‘struggling’ in the sea – only to find they were making love.

The alert was raised after a man from De Panne spotted the couple with his binoculars and contacted the coastguard, reports Het Nieuwsblad.

A Sea King rescue helicopter from a military base in Koksijde, a lifeboat and local police officers were all drafted in to help the couple.

But when the two swimmers were finally ‘rescued’ they complained there was nothing wrong with them and they had never been in any danger.

The 23-year-old girl, from Waterloo, was wearing only her partner’s boxer shorts while the man, also 23, was completely naked.

Sounds a whole lot better then shooting at their rescuers, huh?

Where Was the Left on 9/11?

I had said I was going to stay away from the Hard Left folks after their disgusting rhetoric regarding hurricane Katrina, but I just had to check on what they did to remember 9/11. And what did they do? If they even bothered posting anything at all, it was disgusting political smears. Billmon (not linking anyone) had several smears. The Daily Kosbat, the biggest "progressive" political blog on Earth, didn’t mention 9/11 till almost 5pm EDT, and that one quickly became an Iraq War rant. Atrios, Talking Points Memo, America blog, nada. MoveOn? Nothing. Democratic Underground. Barely a thread, nothing on the front page. All across the ‘net, Dems ignored the 4th Anniversary of 9/11. Those who didn’t used it for their hate and/or conspiracy theories.

And how about Democratic officials? John Kerry? Nada. Ted Kennedy? Nancy Pelosi? Missing. Harry Reid? Zip. I have yet to run across a Dem elected official website which mentions 9/11. Meanwhile, most of the GOP ones do.

This is the state of the modern Democratic Party. The Moonbats have taken over. The normal dems, those with ideas and a basis in reality, those who care about America, and love America, have become the fringe. The Hard Left, who gets all upset when they are called anti-American, that they hate America, that they are unpatriotic, proved that all those sayings were 100% true yesterday. Waving the Flag is a good thing. Taking pride in your Nation is a good thing. Loving your country is a good thing. Those are things that the Moonbats do not believe in. Their silence or smears on the 4th Anniversary of 9/11 shows their hatred.
