Hodges described waiting in the burning sun in conditions she likened to a concentration camp. Rep. Jeff Miller, a Florida Republican, asked her to stop making that comparison.

"I'm going to call it what it is. If I put a dress on a pig, a pig is still a pig," she responded heatedly.

Miller countered, "Not a single person was marched into a gas chamber and killed."

Are some of these people from ANSWER? I saw a bunch of NO folks marching in DC with them from NO and I'm still getting rally info from ANSWER concerning NO.

They are determined to tie the hurricane in with the antiwar/anti-military movement.
