correction.... society
The same port some dodo on CNN said Stonewall Jackson fought the French for. lol
There are hundreds of thousands who were suddenly homeless. This has been inprecedented. Using normal standards of spending and audit in an emergency is just not realistic."
What's "nonsense"?
The Fed unprecedently handed out thousands of $2,000 debit cards like they were Easter Eggs because of political pressure.
FEMA (the Federal Emergency Management Agency) is not supposed to need "weeks of staff studies" to know what to do in this situation. They are supposed to have THE plan in place.
FEMA had proven to be ill-prepared and almost as incompetent as much as state of Louisiana and the city of New Orleans -- something Dubya promised would indeed be "investigated."
Me too! :) And all the best to you and yours.
I just try to answer any pings before I go to bed and/or irritate my husband, whichever comes ... last. ;)
Goodnight. :)
I think Rush now refers to Russert as Dim Russert instead of Tim Russert. It is a well deserved nickname; russert has completely lost his objectivity (if he ever had it).
That rebuilds nothing.
Perhaps they should all move to Atlanta?
The latest asessment I read is that those early assessments were too pessimistic, and that it looks like things arent as bad as they initially appeared.
Just imagine how much time it would take to negotiate money away from each individual project.
That sounds like a threat to the president.
Something serious has gone awry
with Scarborough since he left
congress.
That said, I will tune in to Nightline just for fun.
Then why are people building in high risk areas if they can't get insurance. I can't believe what I'm hearing from a conservative website!
The flood insurance would have covered what they presently owned. It's not a great situation, but that is what people who live in high risk areas go through.
By the way, Ophelia is going to lightly hit our area; (we are all going to die) I think I will go to the coast so that I can get hit and claim that I "could not escape in time." Do you think if I complain and cry and throw a hissy-fit that I will be able to call President Bush and get millions of dollars to "rebuild my life"... No, I did not think so.
All of us real conservatives are very jealous now. Can we join??"
Yes...
(only IF you stop drinking Howlin's koolade.)
FYI, insurance money was factored into the monetary benefits that the 9/11 families received.
Looks like a direct threat to me. Reckon people need to hear of this?
Thanks, no, I'll stay hear and fight thieves like you.
He has been through more in four years than any President in our lifetime. I pray for him a peaceful retirement after his incredible service to this country is over.
And I'm still waiting for Jeff to answer as to how President Bush has been spending money for six years when he's only been in office for four, and how he gave this speech to get votes when he's not running again.....
Bashers don't seem to have logic as a strongsuit, do they?
tucker carlson saying "this is a guilt speech, and the only way a guilty government knows how to make it right - is to throw money
YEAH. Let's see the Dems agree with Tucker Carlson! lol.
fair enough. so tell us, what's the 200-300 billion dollars for? and that's on top of private insurance money.
