I saw one mother and son on CNN this am and when I switched back to Fox, they were interviewed again. Fox bent over backwards (actually led the interview which they should not have done) to get them to say that they were grateful to be rescued. When a reporter asks are you grateful, you really can't say otherwise. Even they said that it could have been done sooner. CNN, OTOH, was trying to get evacuees to whine.

Actually, I'm very unhappy that my tax money is going to evacuate these people--and give them 90 days assistance with housing, food, computers, grief counseling... There are legitimate Americans who need to get out. The others should return and I'm sure they probably will when the shooting is over. I hope we don't pay that too. I love my country, but we can be so naive. We will come to rue this, I'm afraid.

Grief counseling???

Oh, I'm so disgusted I have to leave. We have absolutely invited trouble to our shores.
