Rainman--

We all know that the aftermath of the Hurricane Katrina left a very slimy wet mess that was perpetuated by those (in)famous more than we think. We KNOW that. You pointing it out to us does not diminish that WE MUST CLEAN IT UP--TOGETHER!!!

But the IMHO, a whole BUNCH of folks OWE NOLA... The NOLA folks deserve better.

I know I donated nearly $1000 when this sadness was going on--money I did not have at this time. I guess that makes me a fool. But, I once believed I could make a difference--I guess I am bitter now over how people who are disenfranchised are hurt.

I'm still concerned myself why more isn't being done. I mean seriously.... in May we had an entire Kansas town blown off the map...and as of today, all od the debris is gone, people are living in FEMA trailers, and construction is underway. The US Senate has also approved a $20 million dollar labor grant that would will be used to hire public employees that will help rebuild the town.

Granted this is a town of 1,400 but still....all of this and its only August?

I know that there are some hard feelings between Nagin and Blanco, especially since he didn't back her in her bid for governor, but goodness....get your point across some other way instead of letting people suffer.
