PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH is doing
damage control, to improve his approval rating, so that he won’t be
remembered in America’s history as a “Lame Duck” chief excutive that
couldn’t fly. |

PUBLISHER’S ANALYSIS

|
|
New
Orleans Evacuees are
Mayor White’s new friends |
|
 |
|
The “Friends of Bill White,”
who made him a “strong mayor,” proved to be friends, indeed,
when he called on them to use their diverse re-sources to help
him, help the victims of Katrina that were desperately in need.

Hurricane
Katrina taking
toll on energy costs
The aftermath of Hurricane
Katrina will be felt by those in the Gulf Coast for years. While our Texas
cities are opening their doors, and Texans are opening their hearts, there
is no way to fully prepare for the long-term devastation of Katrina. Yet, in
the near term, people across the country are feeling the brunt of this storm
in different ways, especially at the gas station.

East Texas News
It has occurred to me that
many among us (Black folks) understand the cost of almost all “material
things”, but don’t seem to understand the value of “very little” that is
real and vital to us as a people. I heard an intelligent Black man say on
C-span recently that Black people don’t pay for their politics. While there
are some enlightened freedom fighting exceptions to that rule, for the most
part it’s a true statement.

Sheltering New
Orleanians Beyond Limits
When hurricane Katrina pounded
the gulf coast last month, she left the city of New Orleans underwater and
its people with little more than a few articles of clothing and memories.
New Orleans residents began spreading across the country and thousands found
solace with Mayor Bill White and the city of Houston. |

religious is any activity pursued in behalf of an ideal end
against obstacles and in spite of threats of personal loss
because of its general and enduring value."
