Katrina has caused energy crisis

Katrina's effects on U.S. oil refineries will reduce gasoline production by ten percent or more. Releasing oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve will fail to solve this problem. We may see a gasoline shortage soon. We are almost certain to see sharp increases in prices for all refined products. I advise the President, Congress, Governors and CEO's to ask Americans to "CONSERVE ENERGY NOW" and even to delay or cancel any vacation activities.

Bring light to New Orleans

It's a simple suggestion. Put floodlights and searchlights on the roofs of tall buildings in New Orleans. Provide some level of light to the city 24 hours a day so that rescue operations can continue through the night and to discourage looting and lawlessness.

Helicopters can bring these lights in along with the portable generators, operators and fuel. The military probably already has this equipment. Light up New Orleans.

Also, distribute 100's of satellite phones with GPS. Communicate what is needed. Point the searchlight at the location. Coordinate response. Light and communication.

The troops should be brought home to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina

Eelectionwatch2006: Just what does the Census Bureau mean by Hispanic?

I think that Bush has been a very negative impact on the USA & the whole globe. Why are so many people dying? Why has Bush squandered billions & billions of dollars on WAR when that money could have gone to help all the families here in the USA?

So many bad things have happened to the USA under this Bush Administration. The troops should be brought home to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina. We must galvanize and help our own people first. Let Iraq handle its own problems. We have already gotten rid of Saddam Hussein for them. Enough is enough when we have so many people here in the USA suffering.

We need to help our own brothers and sisters first! I want to be clear in stating that I am not only blaming Bush and the Republicans for squandering so much money as well as so many American lives. I am also blaming those Democrats who did not have the courage to stand up to Bush and vote against this WAR. Many Democrats are as much to blame as George Bush is.

That is why I voted for Nader/Camejo in 2004 www.votenader.org I will vote for a 3rd Party Candidate again in 2008 because the Democrats have shown that they are no better than Bush and his Republicans!

Please galvanize and vote for James Partsch-Galvan for Houston City Council November 8, 2005 (713)528-2607 www.galvan.org

Bush & The Congress cannot amend the road map

US Mum on Expansion of Israeli Colonies, Pressures PNA, Qurei: Temporary Palestinian State Is Absolutely Not Accepted (Al-Jazeerah, August 30, 2005)

The letter published in the aljazeerah.info Letters to the Editor, March 24, 2005 stating Bush & The Congress cannot amend the road map needs to be further developed by other writers.

The story above shows how important it is to act on. Hopefully the PNA will take it to the World Court or UN before its an old issue. Again we see the schmuck lawyers trying to legitimize the Zionist Squatter (illegal settlement) Movement.

The neocons now have the US trapped in Iraq as a result of all the bad Intel they put out. And now they will use this cover to take all of Palestine they want.
