The thing that really pisses me off are the number of people who think that Federal aid poured into the Gulf Coast after the hurricanes in 2004 and 2005. There was a lot of talk, and a lot of money spent, but it didn’t reach the coast. They should look at the little towns in Mississippi, if they want to see how badly things have gone. Mississippi has a Republican governor and Senators, they weren’t constantly lied about in the media. Mississippi, outside of the casino area, is in no better shape that New Orleans. They are no further along than the southern parishes. They have no more chance of coming up with matching funds, than Louisiana.

Government contractors are the only people who have seen any real money.

Two and a half years later, and FEMA has still not agreed on the rules for removing debris from hurricane Ivan. We still have piles of crap lying around waiting to be hauled off so people who have the money can rebuild.

If they didn’t stick the money in emergency bills, there wouldn’t be any money until after September.

What I wanna know is, how these slimeballs can call the money that they PROMISED in The Photo-Op Of All Fucking Time, to New Orleans and the Gulf South — how in the FUCK do they call it “pork”???

Oh, wait, I forgot. BLACK PEOPLE EAT PORK, so any money to help poor majority-black areas is “WASTEFUL.” Not that there weren’t an assload of poor white, asian, hispanic, et al, who were affected by Katrina, but what the klan-wannabes at the White House remember is all of those black people at the Dome and the Convention Center, calling ’em “REFUGEES” like they just got here from Haiti.

Sorry, I’m still pissed.

Every one of them has had pork thrown that wasn’t even remotely “emergency funding” and these hypocrites know it.

Excuse me IF I am wrong…but show me one of His *supplemental emergency spending bill* for the past 5 years that did NOT include these kinds of expenditures! And Off- Budget is one of their many *magic asterisks* of the war funding!
