How can you say a city that brings in billons of $$$ or is rich in history/culture is not important enough to build a bigger levee. We can spend a S---- load of money to help other countries out but when it comes to the improvement of my home state its not a major concern? As far as the Gov. of LA not doing her part oh trust me she did. What the White House doesn't catch CNN so he couldn't see what was going on...oh wait I forgot he was in Waco raising money for Iraq (it was all over the news here in Houston). Let me shut up before I catch a treason charge.

Please!! I live above the Mason-Dixon line and I am pissed right along with you. I am not a sensitive person at all but I have sat in front of my t.v. and cried out of frustration. I can truly say that once again, as a black person, I am embarrassed to be an American.
I will purchase my "GB don't care about Black People T-Shirt" and the "We want your blood for oil" t-shirt...Oh the ignorance and arrogance from Bush, Rumsfield, Cheney and the rest of them is crazy. And I swear, if Donald Rumsfield opens his mouth, I will scream.......
So it looks like we both are going to be in trouble.
