New Levee Break Threatens Missouri Town Despite Valiant Efforts

AP Update: A makeshift sandbag levee holding back the Mississippi River failed early Saturday and authorities said part of the town was evacuated. Water began flowing under the 4-foot-high barrier around 4:30 a.m. An alarm sounded and the few residents remaining in the flood plain were ordered to get out.

C’mon Farakahn, don’t you have tapes of George Bush blowing these levees up so there can be a photo op?

It’s NOT NICE TO FOOL (around with) MOTHER NATURE!

Maybe they shouldn’t have tried to mess around with the Mighty Mississippi River in the Midwest…
Seems they’ve been having flooding of “biblical proportions” ever since…

Levee. Isn’t that a Jewish name?
