Let them drown, they’re just Deplorables

There are major things happening right now that the media could care less about reporting. Flyover Americans are suffering.

Our “betters” in the media industry continue to prove every day why this site and others like it need to succeed. I read this in American Thinker, and the news probably is being presented on other blogs here and there, but it isn’t on Drudge, or Fox, or CNN, or ABC, or MSNBC, or even any foreign media I found (surprising, given how they love to revel in the misfortunes of “hick America”).

This was a hard winter and much snow accumulated and ice formed on all the rivers. Then suddenly the weather turned and most of that H2O turned liquid. What didn’t melt floated high-speed in chunks the size of cars, ripping out grain elevators and barns, tearing into houses and businesses. I saw one picture of a kitchen filled to the tops of the counters with dirt-laden ice.

At the same time heavy rain began to fall. So far hundreds people have had to be evacuated from 29 small farming communities that are now more islands than they are towns. No one knows how many animals have been frozen or drowned. This isn’t warm water –- it’s just one step down from ice and there’s a wild wind blowing. One picture I saw showed a cluster of maybe 30 cattle huddled together hopelessly on a tiny hillock in the middle of what looked like a vast, edgeless lake, but was really the Platte River far over its banks. One helicopter pilot said there were many more such tiny bovine islands across the landscape.

This is what we face as an “untouchable” class, folks. Anything that is of real news to real people enduring real hardship just ain’t news.

Let’s help Whittle and the team spread the words that must not be heard.

I gave a link, but one thing I don’t like about this site is the coloration of links doesn’t make them clear (and they have no underlines). Here is the original story I found:

I’ve seen semis blown over by the highway. It’s an astonishing sight. I can attest to the winter’s impact here in Idaho, as well. We are going to have some local flooding, but nothing like what is being reported in these areas.
