Category 2 for Miss Lili, not a 4. She wasn't so hot after all, huh?

Did they lie, to tear all those south Louisianans out of their beloved homes so we wouldn't have an unnecessary death toll? Or maybe GWB backed a plot to send as many poor families as possible into hotels, to raise consumer demand so the economy doesn't look so bad? Hell, he's so good with God, maybe he just ordered the whole thing up to stimulate the economy. Hateful Republicans.

Jeez, I'm glad my name is Gore. I can feel real solidarity with all them little people.

Damage in south Louisiana still looks bad, according to TV reports: 127,000 people without electricity, loose power lines, dropped trees on cars and roofs, thigh-high flooding, awnings and signs down and scattered across hundreds of yards. Just picking up dropped tree limbs will take hours on some of those properties. But not a 4.
