clearvision Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 HMMM CNN crew at house on "Grande Isle". Water about a 1' from flooding the house.. Sounds like decent storm surge coming in... then he points into the distance and says an emergency vehicle that can drive in "high water" just went by. So this house about to flood is in less that what 1' of water? Not sure there a emergency vehicles driving around in more than that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clearvision Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I shouldn't be so flippant. There is going to be mass flooding (like SC got today) from this. I'm sure it will be bad with flooding and some wind damage, but this hype just drives me up the wall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTexan Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Thanks to the TRR faithful for their running dialog on the convention and coverage last night. I was just looking at the "morning after" coverage by the various MSM sources and blew a gasket when I saw the Raleigh New & Observer coverage (better said as non-coverage) of last night. These are the top three news stories on their site this morning. 1) Isaac 2) Durham councilman leads safety run with a couple dozen people 3) BREAKING NEWS: Carolina parakeet went extinct in early 1900's Page down five screens and you find this extensive and profound coverage of Tampa. It will be interesting to see if they cover the convention in Charlotte next week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

righteousmomma Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Never in a million years did I think I would say this - but Rush has depressed me the last few days. Sometimes I think he is the one out of touch with most of us who live surrounded by moderates and liberals. People who have heard and read and been indoctrinated by the msm/tv/movies their whole lives. I understand his frustrations and really agree that more should have been said and should be said about the left direction that is anti capitalism etc etc etc but how do you deal with perceptions etc when you have news people saying things like today where one says something to the effect that Ann Romney viciously attacked Obama by wrapping her attack in cozy warmth. All we can pray is that Romney and Ryan will take a page from Reagan. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pollyannaish Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I'm Chris Matthews and I'm dumber than a box of rocks Sometimes I wonder how the left can continue to perceive themselves as intelligent. Especially since it is starting to appear as if "birtherism" may end up the most hilarious rope-a-dope ever. Some serious folks brought up some concerns, some right fringers took it to the next level and then the main party and most of the grass roots pretty much says "let's focus on the economy" leaving the birther fanaticism to guys like Matthews, while everyone else discusses the pressing issue of the day like grown ups. It's funny, really. Condi's look was priceless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pollyannaish Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I have been trolling through the liberals comments on my FB page. First of all, I notice a LOT of happy conservatives, but they are quite quiet about politics. However, my liberal friends are following exactly the party line: That Ryan's speech was dazzling, deceitful and distracting. And they are seething. Like cornered dogs, honestly. So. We can't just disagree anymore, we must be branded liars if we have different perspectives on life. Frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
