Yeah, even if I assume that their heart is in the right place, their boots and rifles aren't if foreign soldiers are on our soil.
I saw on Scarborough Country last night that there were some rescue workers ready to fly to NO on the day the levees broke, and they were told to take a bus. They were carrying communication equipment that would have allowed those going house to house to coordinate better during the process. Seems like it was there that I also saw the story about the NYFD going down to help and being turned back. Joe's not a happy camper about all this, and as he's not a left-wing nutjob that would complain if Bush gave him a backrub and a shoeshine, he's got a lot of credibility with me on this issue. He's down on EVERYONE, from the local screwups to the failures of the feds--and was from Wednesday or Thursday after the flooding started on Tuesday.
