Iowa Flooding

[Guest nraforlife]

Why aren't Hollywood celebrities holding telethons asking for help in restoring Iowa and helping the folks affected by the floods?

Why aren't the media asking tough questions about why the federal government hasn't solved the problem? Or asking where are the FEMA trucks (and trailers)?

Why isn't the Federal Government relocating Iowa people to free hotels in Chicago?

Why isn't it giving them $200 vouchers that they can spend on alcohol and vice?

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?

Because George Bush hates black people, scratch that, I meant to say Iowans...

Nice post VK. very succint.

and of course, if ANY mayor said they wanted a "vanilla city" there'd be picket signs all over the place. the left handed, german apostates for social change would say that they're being racial.

this is easy to solve.

Middle America is not looking for a handout. Heck I bet most of these people affected with the flood are not looking for more than a hand up.

Thats the big difference between the Flood of 08 and Katrina vs. NOLa

The chocolate city is still looking for handouts and a free ride.

Those who can do, does who can't look to someone else to fix their problems!

Where is Rev. Al and Rev. Jesse?

I'd bet the people in Iowa are too busy cleaning up and rebuilding rather than sitting on their butts and waiting for someone else to help them
