Well which is it? ARe you pissed off because people you don't know aren't allowed to "return to their homes" or that "King George the socialist" will spend "our tax dollars" on "various aid programs."

Imagine the NERVE of the president showing up with money and aid when hundreds of people may have been killed. You should have spent last year in FL like I did. And btw, nobody stays during the storm because they are afraid they won't be allowed back to their home. They stay because its there home.

I happen to believe you're just here to stir up trouble.

This is what i call constituent activism. Judicial activism is where judges invent extra constitutional powers. Constituent activism is when voters do the same thing. Where does the constitution empower the president to spend tax money to payout flood victims?

Uh, not according to some of the people I've known in the path of hurricanes (North Carolina, for example). In fact, you sometimes hear this on the news of small TV stations when they interview those who stay behind.

Conservative viewpoint not welcome here, eh?

Guess what? I live in Florida.

I have no problem with King George donating as much of his own money to the residents of New Orleans as he wishes.

I have a big problem when he confiscates money from MY family to do so.
