Yup. I was going to post that link the other day but must have gotten side tracked. Foamy rules.

GO Foamy Go Foamy ,,, This squirrel makes a lot of good points !

The reporters that stand outside in the dangerous winds saying, "This is something I have never seen before" -- are really asking for trouble.

One reporter was "Live" when a metal panel flew right past his head smashing into a red truck causing a dent in the cap of the pickup !!

Can Foamy the Squirrel be elected to Senate??

Okay, I think I'm gonna be in trouble for saying this, but here goes . . .

While I admit that Foamy the squirrel is fairly amusing, his rant is clearly one of the dumbest that I have ever heard, but I guess we should expect this from a talking squirrel. I hope no one is actually taking this seriously.

I couldn't agree more with what he says about the looters (with the exception that some people are just stealing food and water to survive), that people should help out, and people's short attention span. That said, his tirade against reporters is soooo rediculously stupid! What he forgets is that the reporters bring this tragedy into the homes of millions of Americans every day. They show the devastation and the human tragedy. And that is why millions of dollars are pouring into the Red Cross and other relieft organizations. Their coverage is what is prompting people to volunteer to help out the victims. Hmmmm. Would I rather have a couple dozen untrained ad-hoc relief workers or millions of dollars in monetary support and hundreds oftrained and motivated volunteers? That's a tough one. Let me think about it. Well, although Foamy would prefer the former, personally, I'd take the latter.

Go visit the link and enjoy Foamy. But, PLEASE, don't take him seriously.

You're absolutely right. The only talking squirrel anyone should take seriously goes by the name of Rocket J. Squirrel AKA Rocky.

At least he has a known education (Snare Drum Major at Juilliard and degree at Cal Tech (Calvin's School of Supermarket Technology)).

I couldn't agree more. Had this come from Rocky, I would definitely have listened.
