Katrina aftermath - what the fuck???

I have actually been able to stay away from news stations for the past few days. I feel good about my children's and my donations. Living in NYS, there really is nothing more I can do than give money. I do hope it goes to the right place.

If I were closer, I would do as much as I possibly could. When the twin towers went down, my wife and 2 boys jumped in my truck and followed the fire trucks down the thruway. We were stopped from entering the city but again, we did make quite a large donation. And at that time, we really couldn't afford it.

I do blame the government for not getting people out faster. I do blame the government for not getting supplies faster. Taking care of our people during and after a disaster is the government's responsibility. And they let everyone down....again.
