"The Federal Emergency Management Agency has issued more than $1.5 billion to 607,000 Katrina victims in the form of individual cash handouts of $2,000. There are no restrictions on how the money can be spent, FEMA officials said."

Double Dang.

One elderly man poured a bottle of Ruble vodka into a water bottle and spent the afternoon sipping the liquor outside the Wal-Mart.

If that ain't an aristocratic spree, what is?

Hmmmmm..I think that would be drinking Mad Dog 20/20 out of an empty Mcdonalds french fry box.

``They were tipping me $5 a pop,'' said a Zachary's dancer named Angel. ``I told them I felt bad taking their money. But I still took it.''

It's a little difficult to give the money back when it's already been stuffed in your cleavage, I guess.

Yep, if you took all the money from the rich, gave it to the poor, the rich would have it back in six months. There's a reason why most people are poor.

These evacuees are a bunch of idiots. If they were smart, they'd skip the alcohol, stay sober and upgrade from strippers to some really hot escorts. Are these people nuts?

Looking more each day like Mayor Nagin had his own Mariel Boat Lift. Massachusetts ought to buy them each a lot with a trailer in Louisiana. It will be cheaper for everyone.

Your money goes further w/cheap booze and cheap strippers. Hot escorts expect the South American Nasal Whitening Powder.

Errr, thats what I've read on the internets.....

Government Cheese
by Rainmakers

Give a man a free house and he'll bust out the windows
Put his family on food stamps, now he's a big spender
no food on the table and the bills ain't paid
'Cause he spent it on cigarettes and P.G.A.
They'll turn us all into beggars 'cause they're easier
to please
They're feeding our people that Government Cheese

Give a man a free lunch and he'll figure out a way
To steal more than he can eat 'cause he doesn't have to
pay
Give a woman free kids and you'll find them in the dirt
Learning how to carry on the family line of work
It's the man in the White House, the man under the
steeple
Passing out drugs to the American people
I don't believe in anything, nothing is free
They're feeding our people the Government Cheese

Decline and fall, fall down baby
Decline and fall, said fall way down now
Decline and fall, fall down little mama
Decline and fall, decline and fall

Give a man a free ticket on a dead end ride
And he'll climb in the back even though nobody's driving
Too GD lazy to crawl out of the wreck
And he'll rot there while he waits for the welfare check
Going to hell in a handbag, can't you see
I ain't gonna eat no Government Cheese

Maybe they need to be in detox? A good smack upside the head would work too.

"Gov. Mitt Romney and the Legislature approved a $25 million emergency aid package to feed and house 235 of the evacuees at Camp Edwards."

Ah-scuse me? $25M divided by 235 evacuess = $106,382.97 PER EVACUEE! That's a whole lotta feedin' and housin' goin' on! All kidding aside: Who's getting greased here? Bed linen suppliers? Provisioners? Administrative companies? I'm hoping these NO natives experience the coldest damned winter New England has seen in some time. Heck, even a normal winter ought to make them wish for back home, where you can drink third-rate booze out of a first-rate paper bag year round.

There's a thread at Cape Ann Online which suggests that 7 of the evacuees sent to Otis AFB were sex offenders.

evacuees swiped liquor off shelves at the U.S. Coast Guard store on the base and drank it in the aisles.

Got to take the edge off that Jones as Nagin satd.

But did you happen to see this link I recently posted? One person actually asked if the article was a parody, but since this situation is unfolding about 35 miles away from where I live in Louisiana, I can assure you it's not.

Movin' on up: Will poor black evacuees ever want to leave Frank Stronach's Palm Beach paradise?

And what happens after they're done p*ssing all this money away? They'll cry and whine and then scream racism when they don't get another 2K.
