New Orleans' levees break
"It appears that the money has been moved in the president's budget to handle homeland security and the war in Iraq, and I suppose that's the price we pay. Nobody locally is happy that the levees can't be finished, and we are doing everything we can to make the case that this is a security issue for us."

Man this is getting bad, suicides, hostages, mass looting, and apparently 9 more feet of water is on the way tonight.
