		<description>Yes, J. Goldberg, Dr. Darken is great, probably one of America's and the world's greatest pediatrician, a very thorough clinician and diagnostician. She is my daughter's(her patient) greatest professional inspiration. Only a real heroine would have stayed in New Orleans when she could have left before Hurricane Katrina with her husband and family.</description>

		<description>Jonah Goldberg's posts (the "Attention Superdome Residents" was one) were indefensible, and there's no defending him. In my opinion, his "overwrought" apologies show he is ashamed as he should be.

His levity is inexcusable, however his inability to grasp to severity of the situation is not unique to him. I live in Chicago, and I know nobody who lives in New Orleans. However, I had the occassion to see the news on Sunday before the hurricane hit, and I was completely terrified of the situation. I kept bringing up how terrible Katrina could be that evening with my wife and father-in-law, and my wife asked why I was so concerned. I tried to explain it to her, but it wasn't until Tuesday that she realized what was happening.
Goldberg's flippant comments about the Superdome are made worse, precisely because your mother-in-law's description (and news reports) indicate that the scene in there IS an apocolyptic nightmare.
I cannot begin to imagine what millions of people are enduring as they have simultaneously lost their homes, their jobs, their ways of life and plenty of loved ones.
I stumbled across your blog thanks to Wizbang blog, which I visited thanks to the Corner. Thank you for your accounts, and thank you for advice on how to help.</description>

		<description>If you do not want people to comment disable your comments.  YOUR comment section invites comments, advice and prayer.  

You say blogs are not solicitations for advice or prayer.  Oh, really?  That is not how you saw it last night.   AND I QUOTE FROM YOUR COMMENT SECTION FROM THE POST BELOW. 

&lt;i&gt;Glad to hear your family is safe. I have a bad feeling about New Orleans. I think it may turn into a form of Chernobyl due to the toxic waste mixing in the water. It could turn out the best solution is to the burn it down. I think the gummint knows this too but isn't quite ready to tell the people yet. Sound familar? Hope Mom in law stays safe and bless her fdr staying. Best wishes to you and your family

I say you are wrong and/or a hypocrite. I'll let you choose.  

I was not trolling, I am not a troll.  Matter of fact I figure you and I are fairly close politically speaking. I live in Nebraksa and you can't get more conservative than that! I will say it again, I am NOT attacking YOU! You are so emotional right now that you FEEL I am but that is not and was not my intent. 

You have continued your insults of me. &lt;B&gt;NOTE: I have not returned YOUR barbs, Insults or vulgar language!&lt;/B&gt; I continue to pray for you and your wife and mother in law!

FYI, Whether I am male or female IS relevent.  I am sure you would not appreciate it if people referred to you as Mame, Madam, Miss, Mrs.! Or do you treat all women badly?  I prefer to believe you are normally a very nice person.  God Bless you and yours and the souls in the Gulf States!  We will continue to pray for you!</description>

		<description>Your comments were unsolicited and unwanted. Blogs are not solicitations for advice or prayer. You were either trolling or defending Jonah either of which makes you about the same level as him.

Whether you are male or female is irrelvent.

		<description>Sir,

Lets get one things Straight, I am a female! And I quote myself again!  &lt;i&gt;I could have slipped an F word to you or called you an asshole but Lady's don't do that&lt;/i&gt;  Notice the word LADY inserted???

I am NOT attacking YOU! You are so emotional right now that you &lt;b&gt;FEEL&lt;/B&gt; i am but that is not and was not my intent.  I merely stated you were not acting in an adult fashion, you still aren't.  

Fine, don't thank me, no skin off my nose.  I have seen thankless people before.   Your true nature has been exposed and you should be ashamed. 

Yes, you did solicite advice.  By posting your bitch and gripes about Jonah you did.  Or were you looking for sympathy only?  

I will continue to pray for you despite your childlike, foolhardy request for me not too.  You are in need of all the prayers you can get.</description>

		<description>Sir,

You are defending him by attacking me. Screw you if you dont like the way I deal with pricks like him. People who joke about the quality of people fighting for their lives are worthless stacks of shit. People who defend people who do such things are equally as worhtless. 

And no I don't thank people who attack me or give me advice that I did not solicite. Keep your advice and prayers to yourself.

		<description>I will quote you what I said!  &lt;I&gt;Understand I am NOT standing up for Jonah.&lt;/I&gt;  Go ahead go back and read what I wrote.  

Now you insinuate that I am worthless?  Go ahead I can take it.  Apparently I can take it far better than you. 

I was attempting to help you snap back into reality!   You Sir are currently in an emotional state that leaves you in a WORTHLESS state to help your wife/kids/mother in law!  You need to  suck it up and start acting like an adult for your wifes sake!

Not once in your response did you Thank me for adding you to my prayer list!    Do you want me to take you off my prayer list?   

I could have slipped an F word to you or called you an asshole but Lady's don't do that!  

FYI, I don't have a website.  If you did not want people to comment than you should not have enable your comments.</description>

		<description>Excuse me for butting into this but I think you are letting your stress get to you.  Yes, your stress, worry, grief and any other emotion you are feeling right now is perfectly understandable with your family's and LA, MS, AL current extreme crisis.  Your Mother in Law sounds like a Saint.  

Understand I am NOT standing up for Jonah.  However, you let the F word fly with ease, you threaten bodily harm, then you write: &lt;i&gt;Prick, if you aren't smart enough to post as an adult then stick to reading your marvel comics and playing your useless time wasters.&lt;/i&gt;

Now exactly how adult is your post?   I hope you realize you took his post personal.  I hope you also realize  Jonah does not know you or your family so he was NOT turning his humor (sick or not) on you and your family. Chill out and take a deep breath.  

Now go ahead and send the F word my way, tell me I am not smart enough to post as an adult.  Go ahead I can take it! 

I hope your family and friends weather this.  My prayers will include you and the 2 to 3 million souls in the current extreme crisis.  God Bless!</description>
