Business As Usual 30 Hours After Ike's Landfall


It has been more than 30 hours since Hurricane Ike crashed onto the shores of Galveston, Texas; Yet, only bits and pieces of information about the extent of the devastation is being released. It's as if there is a news media black-out on the aftermath of Ike; As if the piecemeal details that are distributed have to be first analyzed, sanitized before the public can have access to it. Just what are they hiding?



Meanwhile, the High Definition-Digital, Video-Media continues with more Football coverage, more Tennis matches, and more Baseball 'games', along with the ususal Budweiser, and now Miller (absent for ages) Beer commercials. Let the games continue...
Where's Michael Chertoff with the FEMA rescue teams?
Where's President Bush with his entourage?
Where's McCain's 'real change' express?
Where's Obama with the rolled up shirt sleeves?
They're probably at home watching Football enjoying chicken wings and fries!

My constant question to the powers that be is:

Who's on first, what's on second, and I don't know's on Third???


Arsenio.
