"Just three C-130s..."
Edited on Thu Sep-01-05 12:26 AM by scottxyz

People hit by Katrina will die in the next few days because our "leaders" are more concerned about making speeches and appointing taskforces than about actually distributing water and food.

5. There is so much that could and can be done
but we can no longer depend upon our federal government to do anything for us. We are on our own and we better start taking care of each other.
