where were the celebs to help them? What a difference in responses? I guess all the media coverage was a part of it - celebs love free publicity. I was reminded again of this with Gustav approaching. Good to see Bobby Jindal in La I think he is a positive for that state.

Did the flooding in Iowa displace 500,000 citizens? Did the flooding wind up killing 1,500 people? No, but it still uprooted entire communities.....doesn't that matter?

And there will always a difference in responses between a "working hard" community (most communities in the mid-west) and a metro-community....

Smaller communities are less reliant on govt officials than larger communities....its the very nature of the two beasts.

Not many down-trodden blacks in Iowa. Just a bunch of hard working white people who get to work rebuilding when something goes awry. Democrats are to blame because they created an entire society of people that can't fend for themselves. All they can do is look for a hand out and bltch about "the man" keeping them down.

How many people died in the flooding? Close to 1500? Didn't think so. If this is such an important issue to you, why didn't you volunteer to help?

EDIT: Homeowner, Don't bother apologizing for me. I can take care of myself and I'm sure Phil is capable too. At least he knows the facts.
