Everybody who is there is not the "poor left behinds". There were tourists in all the hotels, who were told "Come on down, we never close for anything" and then were unable to get back out of town. They are innocents, too, in this whole thing, aren't they? They have also been herded to the Convention Center and abandoned with no food or water.

I was looking at that satellite photo that's on CNN, but somebody had blown it WAY up and I could see street by street. Y'all, the interstates have sections that are under water; just loading people up and taking them somewhere isn't as easy in actuality as it might look. The interstate that would go to the nearest AFB is destroyed. The interstate that goes to the airport is partially under water.

It's awful. And there's no easy solution. Ten thousand have come to Memphis, and more are on their way. The churches are opening their facilities and the schools are taking the children in. That's such a small drop in such a large bucket.
