Politicians Push Agendas Via Katrina Aid

Listen to this story on NPR

Haven't these poor people suffered enough? Santorum actually claims that charity groups should get more money because they are more "efficient" than the government.

This is the horrible thing about these people: they hate government so, even when government fails, they win. Very, very sad.

Media coverage of New Orleans

Are you, dear readers, hearing the same kind of coverage? What's the overall take on non-NPR/NYTimes media?

The next story talks about civilians "shooting" at rescue crews? Again, have you all heard this kind of thing.
