There’s your split screen image for today.  On the left, the photo tweeted by MSNBC’s Melissa Harris-Perry with the description

 Feeling sad. #Isaac took the home @JamesHPerry and I just bought. All safe. House was vacant except for my dreams. pic.twitter.com/h62AkGPB

On the right is the scene in Tampa, where people bragged about praying the storm away.  Their party will continue tonight, as millions in the Gulf are fighting the elements to stay alive and keep what few possessions they have left.

Today on the show, I gave an update on Isaac, then looked into what’s going on in Tampa.  I was joined by David Dayen who does a great job writing the news at FireDogLake.  In hour two, I was joined by John Amato, the founder of Crooks and Liars and one of the people behind the Blue America PAC.
