Do you believe the Army Investigators are right or wrong in
recommending the death penalty for four soldiers who killed
people in a raid in Iraq?

I thought war meant each side tries to kill the other side. Are
there degrees of fairness in killing?

Below is a clip on how much the Biloxi Bay bridge cost in New Orlens to repair.

And...

The fed is giving over $73,000.00 per each victim. 5 people to each house is $365,000 per family or per home. Then the Ins Co.'s paied I bet half that per person so we are near $500,000.00 per family.

I think I could build a house for 125K and live for about 3 years without a job on 100k more. The rest could go to fix the town back up. So this could mean that 50 to 100 billion dollars would be spent on the city. ??????

Where did it all go?

Total cost: $338.6 million, courtesy of the American taxpayer. The new bridge is just part of the flood of federal money destined for the region - some $110 billion, equal to $73,333 for each person affected by Katrina's hurricane winds.

I guess this is more of a rant then a question but I really do wonder where is the money and to my thinking everyone in that town should be rich.

i hit a guy today because he was in a line waiting to be seen by the ticket man at the train station but he got to impatient with a woman who was in frount of him. she was getting tickets for her and her kids. the man was in a hurry and for some reason got angry so he pushed in front. she said do u mind. so out of no where he slapped the woman in the face.
i see this and i just lost it . i hit him then shouted "dont ever hit woman".
at that point i asked the woman if she was ok. then walked away becuase if i stayed i probs would of battered the guy.

Many of us read the American Heritage presentation of this nations 10 worst disasters, I am sure. http://www.americanheritage.com/places/articles/web/20060905-natural-disasters.shtml

And many of you know first, (or second) hand of a wild and wooly event that settled around Katrina.

The Carnegie, Mellon, and Henry Clay Frick's South Fork Hunting and Fishing Club dam breaking flood disaster in
Johnstown, Pennsylvania, back in 1889 made me remember what my cousin described to me regarding a previous neighbor of his. "It was not recognizable as water, it was a dark mass in which seethed houses, freight cars, trees, and animals".....

After weeks of trying to locate he and his family, I was finally able to contact his son who was living in Naples, Florida, which you will recall got hit with another hurricane not a month after Katrina. His son had gone up to help his father after Katrina hit. To be continued....in additional details.

We're told a $20 million P.R. Campaigne is necessary to tell America of all the "Good Things" being done in Iraq, paid for by our tax dollars ... when media spots arleady exist that tell us the media doesn't say enough. (Who pays for those spots and why don't they take THAT time to TELL US SOMETHING GOOD?)

I would think that if time is already given to address the issue, they would use that time effectively to mention something "good" they wanted to say ... if there was any good news to mention, instead if whinning they "don't have time."

I think this proposed $20 million P.R. Campaigne is going to be more of a propaganda blitz for the Bush Administration, at our expense ... again!

I know they make a lot of money from it but don't they realise most it goes straight in the bin. This in turn fills tips and creates a whole load of problems for everyone else, with the added increase of an eyesore.
