Did someone say beads? :)

Bush to Say New Orleans Will Rise Again
For $200 billion+ we should be able to lower the ocean.

Hell, they could rebuild the city on top of $1 bills for that amount of money.

Offset by budget cuts in what other areas?
None, I presume.

I don't think I can watch tonight. I might scream at my TV and I don't need to scream at my TV anymore than I have the past 14 days. Father help me.

While Bush was not expected to put a pricetag on the disaster, costs are certain to climb to $200 billion or beyond in the near term. The final tab could approach the more than $300 billion spent thus far on U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Congress has already approved $62 billion for the disaster, but that is expected to run out next month. Sooner or later, our taxes are going up.
I mean tax cuts can and do pay for themselves, but not for all this plus the Highway Bill, the Pill Bill, NCLB, etc.

When people look at Bush's presidency from now they would bet a dollar to a donut that he was a democrat by his spending programs

America's money grows on trees -it's a dang bottomless pit here. No wonder everyone wants to live here.

Welcome Home Norm. Hope the Alaskan Cruise was good.
Every President, after a disaster, has opened up the check book. But this is getting real silly already.
Ok, if their going to spend the money, tear down those homes that are in trouble and build a memorial park. DO NOT rebuild for a 2nd catastrophe.
Go north and rebuild some housing.
