"It’s very strange and maybe just coincidental. But have you noticed that it's the "Republican" Red states taking all the refugees from Louisiana?

More due to geographical location than anything else. Michigan (a blue state) has offered to take in refugees; the only thing is they're about as far due north as you can get and not hit Canada." Was aid.




Well, a lot of these people are flying to there destination. Is 100 miles more or less really so far for a 450 mile an hour plane?

Is Illinois really that much further away than Dallas/Ft worth? But Obama (D. IL) will ask for hearings. Bottom line will be, "What did Bush do wrong?" Jesse Jackson another fine Democrat said that the evacuation was racist.

Dallas (Rep.) is bending over backwards to accommodate these people (food, shelter and even schooling). TX as a whole (Rep.) is doing a lot for the refugees. But it really does appear to me that the “liberals” out there haven’t said much constructive other than it was “Bush’s fault”.

Blame Bush and the conservative is their motto. In the meantime it is the Republicans who seem to be answering the mail.

Again, how many thousand refugees went to IL (The Obama home state) that is just so so far away that no one can go there?

I hate the President Bush bashing also, but It might be tough for some of the southerners to survive in some of the northern states.

A whole different world of atmosphere and temperature etc.
