I don't watch much TV, but what I did see was concentrated on just what you saw - a sideshow compared to the real devastation on the Mississippi and Alabama coasts, where the folks were just doing boring things like working their collective tails off instead of putting on a show for the media. Here in Montgomery is where Red Cross recovery headquarters was set up, with thousands of volunteers coming through from all over the country - even Alaska! - to get assignments and head on down to help.... thousands and thousands of volunteers, whose only whine was that they couldn't get there quicker or do more to help quicker. Thousands and thousands of volunteers, and not a single news story or camera to broadcast that to the nation. American goodness just isn't part of their agenda.rjsimp:I guess you saw something on TV or in person different than I did..
If you think America is reflected in what you see on TV you've been sucked in.
America is kind and generous and hard working and good. With warts, no doubt, but good. All you'll ever see on TV is just the warts.
