What I want to know is, why is it taking do damn long for the government to get moving? From what I am seeing, hearing and reading, most of the relief is coming from either organizations like Red Cross, or communties like Houston stepping in. Freaking Bush is talking about hosting private fund raising dinners? Push through an emergency relief bill TODAY and implement it TODAY!! There are hundreds of thousands of able bodied people with nothing to do right now. Hire those willing to work and get started getting things done. I am sure there are a lot of wonderful people there that would jump at the chance to help put their cities back in order and get some badly needed income.

Sorry to rant.....
