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)


Where is Rush Limbaugh? Where is Sean Hannity? Where is Glen Beck?
Where is Bill O'Reilly? Where is Lars Larsen? Where is Mike Gallagher?
Where is every local yokel talk radio on every friggin station in
Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, Minnesota, Illinois, et.al. (all of whom
are CONservatives)?


I heard the Drug Addled Gasbag bloviating about this, (correctly)
praising the heroic response of Iowans, and (incorrectly) darkly
implying that the problem in Katrina was the stupid and lazy dark-
skinned people in Louisiana rather than the stupid and lazy leaders at
the very top who sat back and did nothing as a city full of people
drowned because they didn't own cars or were hospitalized or infirm.
Disgusting.


Actually it was the leaders at the bottom who sat back and did nothing,
Including the totally idiotic Mayor of New Orleans, who personifies 'dumbass'.
