Just received this from my public health listserv. I kid you not:
The FEMA response to the disaster.
FEMA is directing Katrina donations to none other than the Rev. Pat Robertson. FEMA has released to the media and on its Web site a list of suggested charities to help the storm's hundreds of thousands of victims. The Red Cross is first on the list. The Rev. Pat Robertson's "Operation Blessing" is next on the list.
Operation Blessing's board of directors is dominated by the televanglist and his family.
The chairman, "MG Robertson," is none other than the Rev. Pat - Marion Gordon Robertson is his real name - while Pat's wife DeDe is vice president and son Gordon Robertson is also on the board.
Here's the FEMA LINK:
