I'm dissapointed now. The last Houston station still in 24/7 Ike mode, ABC 13, which had nothing else but Hurricane Ike stuff for 5 days in a row, has now stopped it's continuous broadcasting and returned to regular programming.
It is now our job here at GLP to continue the fight, to join with the local gulf coast people whose voices are being quarantined to their own area.
It is now our job to spread the truth. I call on all of you to keep this thread near the top of page 1, to tell everyone you know about the media blackout and coverup, and to see to it that justice is done and the truth is set free.
Don't let this become another Burma where the casualties #s are hidden and the $$ losses are devalued. Don't let the government cover up for corruption and greed. They just stole 85 billion dollars of OUR money from us today to cover for them, and now to further strengthen their position they are trying to cover up one of the greatest tragedies in American history.
Where is the media? Where are the benefit concerts? Where are the victims? What has happened to the constitution of the United States of America?
The government thinks it has won by outlasting the last of the media, but we must carry on the fight. Please join me and those in the Gulf Coast area affected by the storm.
I am copying the reports that we get here on glp, and e-mailing them to everyone on my list. I know that's not much, but I can't think of any other way to get the word out. However, if everyone here on glp sends these stories to 20 or 30 people ...
Just remember, every little bit helps.

Let the unravelling continue. Where and when are we going to stop it.
IT IS AN ABSOLUTE DISGRACE THAT SUCH A DISASTER CAN ACCUR, AND THE MEDIA COVERAGE HAS BEEN AS IT HAS.
I JUST FEEL THAT THESE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN LEFT TO THERE OWN DEVICES.
CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG, BUT, IT SEEMS THAT THE WORLD IS SO NOT CONCERNED, OR INFORMED ON WHAT IS HAPPENNING IN TEXAS.
IKE WAS A TOTAL DESTROYER, IT HAS EFECTED SOOOOO MANY PEOPLE, AND YET IT'S LIKE...WHAT? WHEN? WHERE? NO ONE KNOWS SHIT. CONGRATULATIONS TO THE ASSHOLES WHO HELPED COVER UP THIS MESS...YOU SEEM TO BE GETTING WHAT YOU WANTED....FOR NOW.. THE AWARD FOR THE MOST EVIL FUCKED UP ORGANISATION, GOES TO.....THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT. totally the worst thing I have seen in a long time.

The OP will have to start with a LARGE list of names of
the missing. Other than that it's just more hot air going
nowhere. "Sooner or later all the peoples of the world will have to discover a way to
live together in peace, and thereby transform this pending cosmic elegy into
a creative psalm of brotherhood. If this is to be achieved, man must evolve
for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression, and retaliation.
The foundation of such a method is love."
--Reverend Martin Luther King
Can't PM? Feel free to email me at
DrPostman(at)gmail.com
really do not see how they could have many answers yet
it will take time to figure out who left and who stayed, who's houses are gone and who's aren't etc
how in the world could there be immediate answers to these questions? it could take weeks or months to find out who all may be missing and presumed dead
the media covered the storm, people were warned to leave, they have shown the pics of the aftermath and have sent in help and are working to repair utility services
what more do you want at this point?

Holy shit they did censor him, notice after he confirmed the 3 deaths he starts to go on about something else and they skip that conversation completely.
This isn't good folks.

Not only did a Hurricane come ashore as a 2 but the surge of a 5 , We also had a historic wind storm in the Ohio Valley where millions are without power
Seems like this is being covered up from the damage done to the total death count ~ Only left with Questions that they will not be answering anytime soon from the looks of it

It read. "I want to know what is going on in Texas. The truth please".
There are almost 800 of us here. Let's all send them a message. I did not have to give my email, even though it asked for it.
I know it's just a little thing but at least it's not nothing.

Thank you for your help! If we all type up an email that describes the cover-up and send it to everyone our email list, and try to get on the media's case, this thing will come out! If we do nothing, then the government will get away with it all.

"TEXAS CITY, Texas (AP) -- Hurricane Ike's death toll in the U.S. climbed past 50 on Wednesday and appeared to level off in Texas, where search teams pulled out of Galveston having searched the entire island for survivors.
A long convoy of rescue vehicles headed back to Houston past a miles-long line of cars trying to get back into coastal communities despite orders to stay out. The backlog of traffic frustrated transportation officials, who pointed out that among those idling in the choked interstate were emergency crews and trucks hauling resources badly needed on the island.
"It's not a good scenario," said Raquelle Lewis, a Texas Department of Transportation spokeswoman.
Lewis would not estimate the number of cars caught in the backlog, which extended miles past the first checkpoint that is 19 miles north of Galveston. Lewis pleaded with Galveston residents to not waste scarcely available fuel by trying to head home.
Much of the confusion stemmed from Galveston officials' short-lived decision to allow people onto the island Tuesday to examine their property briefly and head back out. Many along the interstate were unaware that the "look-and-leave" policy had been suspended.
Carlos Azucena, 47, said he had tried three different times in the last 24 hours to get on the island. He said he waited in line for three hours before his final rejection Wednesday.
"I don't understand this. You see those other people," Azucena said, waiving at utility workers and contractors being let on to the island. "They don't even live here, I live in Galveston."
Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff returned to Texas for a second time to check on recovery efforts amid growing criticism about the Federal Emergency Management Agency's response.
In Houston, most people in the nation's fourth-largest city remained without power for a fifth day, making it tough to track the latest information on where to pick up supplies. For most, the electricity wasn't expected back on for at least another week.
Searchers in boats used sonar to sweep for debris clogging navigation routes into one of the nation's busiest ports.
The search and rescue teams of Texas Task Force 1 spent four days making door-to-door searches across the island for those who rode out the storm. Some of the people they found were evacuated while others chose to stay in their homes.
There were some cases where searchers were told that a resident had stayed on the peninsula for the hurricane, but had not been seen since.
In those instances, searchers checked the last place where the person was seen, then gave their names to local emergency managers for follow up, said Chuck Jones, a task force team leader. At times, information conflicted, with one neighbor saying a person had stayed for the storm and another saying they had evacuated before it hit.
Galveston County Medical Examiner Stephen Pustilnik said officials had confirmed the first death in nearby Brazoria County. Pustilnik also gave details on five deaths in Galveston County: Three had serious medical conditions prior to the storm but did not evacuate, one drowned in a truck and one was found in a hotel room.
Ike's death toll officially stood at 51, with most of the deaths coming outside of Texas. Authorities may never know if, or how many, people who tried to weather the storm were washed out to sea.
Residents again waited in line for hours Wednesday at the nearly two dozen supply distribution centers set up in Houston to hand out food, water and ice. Mayor Bill White complained FEMA wasn't bringing in the supplies fast enough, and Harris County Judge Ed Emmett had personally taken over coordination of efforts to hand out relief supplies.
FEMA officials in Houston said they were refining glitches in the relief effort and delivering millions of meals and water every 24 hours. Spokesman Marty Bahamonde said FEMA will begin paying for 30 days of hotel expenses for homeowners whose houses are uninhabitable. FEMA plans to reimburse the hotels directly."
Media is now trying to say the death toll in Texas has leveled off, with most of the deaths from Ike coming in other states!
Did you see the pictures and the numbers?!?!?!
This is insane! Blatant lies!

As shocking as the pics are of the devastation....why is everyone so shocked at the supposed death toll.....If I remember correctly....the NHC, the local officials and the govt officials told everyone on the coast that if they decided to stay or did not evac in time that they faced certain death......why the surprise here folks? The reason why you aren't hearing about a huge death toll is because they are only reporting on what they have found......it is what they haven't found that is disturbing....they can't report on what is not there......they are not even certain how many people stayed so how can they be sure of how many perished....if there was a huge death toll, most of the bodies washed out to sea and they can never be recovered. Rescuers are reporting because there is nothing to report.
