A few pointed questions about the Iowa floods:

Where are all of the Hollywood celebrities holding telethons asking for
help in restoring Iowa and helping the folks affected by the floods?
Where is all the media asking the tough questions about why the federal
government hasn't solved the problem? Asking where the FEMA trucks (and
trailers) are?
Why isn't the Federal Government relocating Iowa people to free hotels
in Chicago ?
When will Spike Lee say that the Federal Government blew up the levees
that failed in Des Moines ?
Where are Sean Penn and the Dixie Chicks?
Where are all the looters stealing high-end tennis shoes and big screen
television sets?
When will we hear Governor Chet Culver say that he wants to rebuild a
"vanilla" Iowa , because that's the way God wants it?
Where is the hysterical 24/7 media coverage complete with reports of
cannibalism?
Where are the people declaring that George Bush hates white, rural
people?
How come in 2 weeks, you will never hear about the Iowa flooding ever
again?
(via a friend)

Because the Federal government (specifically FEMA) is charged with the
responsibility to respond to major emergencies, and the Bush
Administration is the biggest band of incompetent screwups and
negligent idiots ever to mislead a country?

There is no excuse for this incompetence, either in Katrina, or the
much less severe Iowa flooding.

One thing is for certain. If Clinton were President, the National
Guard would have evacuated those hospitals and those without cars
BEFORE the hurricane hit.

So sad we have such ****ty leaders in America right now. Republicans
are the worst joke.
