... the program started out with purpose. It was speaking to 'the truth' I have stated existed in New Orleans since the day the disaster struck. The reality that no one in this administration cared about those in The Ninth Ward except to bulldoze their lives into oblivion. Reclaiming the 'real estate' while ridding the country of it's own worst 'truth,' the poverty of they bayous of Louisiana.
What Anderson Cooper 360 doesn't state is the courts are 'onto' the fact the work to reclaim the dead citizens of New Orleans isn't done !

The planned demolition of hundreds of hurricane-ravaged homes in New Orleans has been put on hold until Jan. 6, when a judge has scheduled a hearing on a legal challenge to the controversial proposal announced last week by Mayor Ray Nagin's administration.
City Hall officials agreed to the delay Wednesday following a brief appearance before Civil Court Judge Herbert Cade, who had been asked by a coalition of activists to ban the bulldozing of up to 2,500 homes over the next several weeks.
New Orleans lawyer Bill Quigley, a longtime advocate for the poor and working-class, is seeking an injunction to stop the demolitions on behalf of the People's Hurricane Relief Fund, an umbrella group consisting of about 60 local organizations dedicated to Hurricane Katrina recovery.
THE TIMES PICAYUNE should be required reading for the nation !
After that segment this program AGAIN sunk into Munchausen's Syndrome by Proxy, seeking it's notoriety by presenting EVERY odd and unsolved medical condition on the face of Earth. They should devote the same energy into solving problems such as Global Warming. That will not happen here because the 'weird' and any type of subject of sensationalism is their speciality. This isn't a news program. It's a program for people with empty lives to feel and think of themselves as noble for the 'knowledge' they have regarding 'trendy' morality rather than lives of purpose and true values.
Anyone can 'perform' to moral standards in front of a camera interlaced with 'People Magazine' at it's heart, but, it takes a 'real journalist' to bring the news to the American Public in a way that matters. Anderson touts himself as CNN's Nicholas Kristoff. Not hardly.
Good night and good luck. Dear God, this is going to go on for another hour exploiting the president of the Ukraine's skin erosion as a stimulus.
S.O.S.
