At half-time of the nationally televised sixers-bulls game on TNT tonite, Charles Barkley provided some political commentary and blasted bush/cheney on katrina and cheney's shoot 'em up hunting trip. Following is the transcript (I typed from TIVO)

I'm a total sports fanatic, and i've never seen such a blatant political attack during a sports event. Way to go Charles!!

I am reading the November issue of Oprah magazine, which has a wonderful interview of Cindy Sheehan by the Vagina Monologue's Eve Ensler.

It ends with this quote "How long are we going to keep letting the men kill our children? I hope it will stop right now." Seems very enlightened, eh?

However, IN THE SAME ISSUE, is a 2-page ad for the military! not just any ad, it's about the slickest and sickest military ad i've seen -- it's directed towards mothers!!!!

I volunteered on moveon.org to provide housing to katrina victims and got a response!! So now i'm trying to figure out how to get this guy from the shelter he's staying in at shreveport, LA to NYC (he's a new yorker who wants to return to his hometown -- he moved to NO after 9/11 because of the stress of the event). He has his dog with him, so i need to find a way for him to travel that includes his dog, and how to get it paid for.

I don't know how to go about it -- i tried calling fema and red cross -- no luck. I went to their websites -- no luck. Can someone give me concrete info of what to do so i can get hime outta there??? Read More

This is my first attempt at a diary, so forgive me if it's not deemed worthy of a diary, but as a New Yorker who lived through 9/11 (and who works just a few blocks from ground zero), i've noticed some interesting and troubling differences between the response to 9/11 and the response to NOLA.
