Good Lord.

Just awful....New Orleans is completely FUBAR. This diary at Kos tells the sad tale: potentially up to 77,000 people still trapped in their homes, water arising around the Super Dome, which was supposed to provide refuge, is possibly turning the place into a death trap...one report has a man intentionally jumping to his death from the second-level balcony -- shades of 9/11.

In other news, President Politician has finally woken up and realized maybe it might not be a bad idea for him to go back to D.C. and look like he's doing something.

The Red Cross isn't my favorite organization, but right now they're the only show in town for helping out. Here's where you can donate.
