Does anyone else suspect that these fatality figures might be just a *tad* exaggerated? It stands to reason that bigger catastrophe = more aid $...
Yes, this was a disaster, but no, I don't think we'll ever hear an accurate body count. High body counts translate into big bucks for UN agencies, third-world countries, NOLA officials, and other thieves.
Kinda like NO at first...or one could also blame that on media histrionics..
