Residents, business owners in state denied financial flooding help; Rell plans to appeal
Since last month's floods, residents and business owners in communities across southeastern Connecticut whose properties were damaged have heard repeated assurances that the federal government would cover their noninsured losses.
Both the state and New London County easily exceeded the monetary threshold needed to qualify for disaster assistance, and last week President Barack Obama signed a disaster declaration that allowed aid to begin flowing to the state and municipalities to cover their costs.

The bullet
Does not know
The head at which
It is aimed.
Very true. So all we can do is try to reduce the rate of fire...
Every time the government gives money to the guy at the front end of the gravy line, it costs me. A little bit each time.
If the government skips my turn when I am at the front of the gravy line, it costs me a lot. But this happens a lot less often.
How about we just eliminate the gravy line, we can all keep our money, and people can take care of themselves...
1) class division: redistribution of wealth, ( Joe the Plumber)Health Care, the MARXIST/STALINIST method.
2) Racial division: This is the fascist method used by Adolf Hitler. (Ask the Jews). Obama seeks to unite all racial minorities against the white folk in the USA.
Both of these will fail, simply because most Americans can see beyond these desperate techniques of division. La Raza, Acorn, and many others will now assail American Patriots with images of violence.
We will not be moved by this.Americans will not surrender the nation. America is much stronger that Obama can possibly imagine. Obama knows not the forces of awakening with which he is dealing. Obama has never been a patriot.He is blind to what is about to happen.
