How the hell is she going to make a campfire unless the government gives her some matches?

What, you actually expect her to gather the wood, pile it up and strike the match? You, you, ..... uncaring right-winger!

Or are we to not only believe ~you~ on this story, but also make this attitude representative of all those people?

Don't you know it more fun to focus on the few complainers versus the many who gratefully took the rations?

This woman is certainly not representative of the bulk of the people still in New Orleans, but there are, no doubt, some people there who just gripe and gripe and gripe about anything and everything people do for them.

Everyone should donate, generously, but I would never take a woman like this into my home, no matter how desperate she is.

I don't know what sort of MRE's were distributed but most of the dinner entrees are indeed unfit to eat without being heated

I haven't eaten every MRE entree there is, but all the ones that I have tried are edible without heating. Anyone who turns it down on that basis just isn't hungry enough yet. Which is fine: it leaves more for the other people.

Per usual the Democrat Base in New Orleans is making things run smoothly /sarcasm.

MRE's come with heat tabs. But then she probably couldn't read the directions.

If they're throwing the MRE's back, I'd say they've had plenty to eat, contrary to the MSM propaganda.

When the b*tch gets hungry enough, she'll close her chops and start eating.

That complaining woman should have read the bloody directions- there's a heating pouch in every MRE.

A.) You are assuming she can read and comprehend.

B.) Are you kidding, do something for herself?

Well now that's just plain silly. You don't really believe that there is anything inside an MRE packet is not suitable for consumption by soldiers in combat unless it's been heated, do you?

I suppose if you're using the statement "unfit to eat without being heated" in the sense of being spoken by "GI's griping about their entree while looking for someone nearby to trade with," you might be correct. :)

People who are in need of food could do a WHOLE lot worse than an MRE a day.

Even from the helo-cams I can see that more than a few of these Democratic voters could stand to lose a few pounds. Bypass these fatties and make sure every kid is fed. Any adult who eats before a child should be ashamed.

...or didn't have any water. The ones I have used need water to heat.

Point taken-still doesn't give her any excuse in my book.

I saw a lady on O'Reilly going off over having to eat MRE's. All I could think of is that my own sons have lived off of those for weeks at a time defending while she can't live a few days off of them? America is in more trouble than we realize.
