P.O.'ed

I am pissed off...

The Untied States ought not leave this much devastation on its own people.

Spike did a wonderful job relaying the thoughts and ideas of folks. Mostly all those he interviewed were affected in someway by Katrina, with a few exceptions.

The ironic part IMHO, was when one of the survivors saw these guys in uniform and asked them who they were, and they said they were the Royal Canadian Mounted Police from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada...

I wonder when Dubya decided to get involved? When Ray Nagin lost it on the Radio? Or when the White House heard the President Hugo Chavez planned on sending support?

The other part that got me was when the radio DJ (I forget his name) was ranting (please don't read this word negatively) about the bigotry he noticed until he just broke down and cried...

It just goes to show you that outright plain hatred is very much alive and well in this country and it rears its demonic head when folks are in utter pain, dishevelment and devastation.

I'm waiting to hear what Chris Rock has to say about this...
