I find it rather amazing, how during a horrific natural disaster, we begin
playing the blame game, "who did what to whom". It takes alot to be honest and
open these days, especially where responsibility and accountability lies in
this horrific disaster. It begins at home, home being in this case, the State
and Local officials of Louisiana, and also the officials in every department
that should have had an emergency plan to evacuate the citizenry of Louisiana.
The travesty that has been placed on so many unfortunate
human beings, simply because they had not the means, nor any given directions
of where to go (a plan???).
Rather than blaming those less fortunate for this inhumane situation, we
should be thinking about the next plan?? The rebuilding of a city, that is the
citizenry of
Louisiana, ALL citizenry, working together, rather than dividing. That also
goes for the other Gulf areas which were devastated by the hurricane.
My heart goes out to all the people who may have experienced much trauma in
the Gulf Coast region.

Each and every citizen of The Gulf region could do quite well, just from
these funds alone. Perhaps President Bush
could do the right thing: Hand each of those citizens $100,00 check to rebuild
their lives. After all, they have
been displaced. The rest for infrastructure which is the responsibility
(should be held accountable) of Congress regarding the safety of its
citizenry.
Just a few to mention:
Quatar offers $100 Million; Kwaiti offers $500 Million; Afghanistan offers
$100 Thousand; Bangladesh offers $1 Million
