1. Living In Florida I Feel & I Mean REALLY FEEL So Bad For Them!!

Even if it will bring it ALL back, I can't believe this could happen again! There are TWO ways to look at this though. IF THE IDIOT REGIME actually pounces on it and does a GOOD job, bet your bottom dollar THEY are going to "HAWK IT" far & wide!

But I actually think it will be a REMINDER of how AWFUL they were and what they DIDN'T do! It's about time THE IDIOTS get whacked up side the head with this type of reminder. However, I don't want it to be so disastrous for NO again! Just a "reminder" and it couldn't comes at a BETTER TIME!!!

The Tropical Storm we just had didn't get a single drop of rain at my home, and I live on the Western Coast about a mile from the Gulf! Knocking on wood here, there's a bit of Indian Folklore about how the Indians who settled here were "SMART" enough to realize that the Intra-coastal waters and tides were a preventative to hurricanes! They either hit below us or above us. Back when we had the FIVE hurricanes, we dodged the ball on each one! Got a lot of wind and debris, but no serious damage, just power outages! Have GENERATOR, Will SURVIVE!!

2. These pump failures HAD to be KNOWN by the manufacturer long before Katrina.

And the cover up for their failures is definitely jailworthy.

3. From What I Recall, The Failures WERE Known!! I Believe Army Corp Of Engineers

informed them. I'd have to go back and re-check, but that's what I recall!

Kicking this for you because I feel it should be front & center too!

4. Thank you. This info goes straight to the wellbeing of our country and will MATTER greatly

beyond this next week - this type of cronyism is DANGEROUS to every citizen.
