HUMAN EVENTS ONLINE :: Chertoff Has 'Few Days Left,' Sources Say John Gizzi: "In the aftermath of the public revelation of the presidential 'teleconference' and mounting criticism of the performance of Michael Chertoff, Administration sources told HUMAN EVENTS today that the secretary of Homeland Security has 'only a few days left' in the Bush Cabinet"
Interesting to see if this is true and why.

Who'd have thought that a hurricane could have high winds and lots of water...and stuff?
I'm Shocked!
Gateway Pundit: Wires: Bush, Chertoff, Nagin & Fats Domino Warned Before Katrina: "Wednesday, March 01, 2006
Today's headline thriller from the AP:

'Tape: Bush, Chertoff Warned Before Katrina'

Who knew?? My goodness gracious! George W. Bush heard it was going to be a big hurricane!! Can you imagine?

Here is some news for the AP...

The whole world was warned before Katrina!!! The AP itself wrote on the Sunday before the hurricane that 'Katrina's storm surge would likely top the levees.' Mayor Nagin told people going to the Superdome should come with enough food and supplies to last three to five days. Bush declared a national emergency. FEMA teams were in place to move in. Emergency assistance was being deployed and national guard troops were being prepared. President Bush personally warned the citizens on the coast.

If the AP wanted to unveil some unreported news they could try this, 'the response to Hurricane Katrina was by far the largest--and fastest-rescue effort in U.S. history.' (via Powerline)

Now, that would be some bold reporting!

Here is what the media and bloggers were saying the Sunday before Katrina hit the Gulf Coast:

August 28, 2005

Katrina Packing Wind of Nearly 175 Mph
Associated Press


Mayor Ray Nagin ordered an immediate evacuation Sunday for all of New Orleans, a city of 485,000 people, as Hurricane Katrina bore down with wind revved up to nearly 175 mph and a threat of a massive storm surge. "
The rest is just as good. What is it with the nutty left?

Just the facts, ma'am


Power Line: Bad Numbers, Part II: "The first is a correction in the New York Times:
Two articles on Saturday about the management deal for six American ports and its political fallout referred incorrectly to the role to be played by Dubai Ports World. It would run some of the terminal operations; it would not own the ports or take over all operations."
Kind of a big mistake, doncha think?

Is this why their reporting is so bad?


DRUDGE REPORT FLASH 2005�: "NBC White House correspondent David Gregory, who apologized last week for calling White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan a 'jerk,' called into MSNBC's IMUS Thursday morning -- apparently drunk!"

Pretty stupid...and sad. Read the entire embarrassment.

Katrina dishonesty

Instapundit.com -: "In other words, there's no news here, but we hope it'll have traction anyway.) Patterico says that the Los Angeles Times is dishonestly portraying the video's contents, but if you get to the second page of the LAT story you find a bit of a dig at the AP for selective editing:
The AP video does not include footage of Chertoff asking Brown whether he needs any other help or of Chertoff asking whether Brown wants him to approach the Department of Defense. Transcripts show that to both questions, Brown indicated that no additional assistance was needed."
Do not trust the liberal media!

OpinionJournal - Best of the Web Today: "Going for Bloke
Maureen Dowd, who writes a column for a subscription-only Web site and is author of a new book called 'Are Men Necessary?,' has gone Down Under to promote her book--and to go 'man hunting,' reports the Sydney Morning Herald.
'When I was 20,' Dowd tells the Herald, 'I fell in love with an Australian hotel manager in Dublin called Rowan. After that, I wanted to emigrate to Australia but my parents made me go home instead. Now I'm here at last. And if they can take a strong, sassy, saucy woman, Australian men should please apply.'
The Herald invites its readers to apply, and here are some of their comments:
From: SSS
Comment: If she can answer this question I'll let her have me. How many blokes does it take to open a beer can? None. Maureen should of [sic] had it opened when she brought it to me. She better be able to cook and clean also.

Support our best teachers in Muskegon!


OK, she's one of many great teachers but our French transplant is truly one of the best teachers in our county. Bernadette Bilock, a French teacher at North Muskegon High School, is promoting, again, a wonderful dinner and French experience at the Hearthstone next week. The food is very "French", the service is very "Lister" and the evening will likely become a "memory". All for the benefit of her students.
Gordo and Honey will attend. See you there!

Oscar review-best documentary

After consulting with the Yale admissions committee, the awards committee will give the Oscar to ... 'Paradise Now,' a heartwarming story about Palestinian suicide bombers. How good is it? Al-Jazeera gave it 4 1/2 pipe bombs. It's Air Syria's featured in-flight movie this month -- go figure! I don't want to spoil the ending for you, but let's just say there won't be a sequel."
