Where To Put 90,000 Sq Miles Of Debris? In NO You put it in New Orleans and change that bowl into a land that is above sea level. Everything there should come down, leave it right there, bury it, build up the land, then rebuild. Forget about building levees for a city with over a million people in it. I'm sure there would be enough debris along the LA, MS, and AL gulf coast to fill it plenty high enough to be safe. After seeing what that city is marinating in now, I don't care how much bleach you put on it, I don't think I'd want to be in anything that was in that. And besides all that, the thug gang culture there is enough to keep me away. It's one thing when you're not aware of their presence, like before a few days ago. What you don't know won't hurt you, can hurt you in this case. And since the world knows what animals live there, I don't know what it would take to feel safe there. Hastert Questions Rebuilding New Orleans (AP). AP - It makes no sense to spend billions of dollars to rebuild a city that's seven feet under sea level, House Speaker Dennis Hastert said of federal assistance for hurricane-devastated New Orleans.

Don't Care, Not Our Problem, Serves Them Right I remember when the United States was called stingy in our response to help people on the other side of the earth. So far the total global contributions for hurricane Katrina relief is $00,000,000,000.00. Best of the Web Today. Will New Orleans recover?

World Leaders Offer No Help, No Condolences, Nothing? Can't help but notice the lack of compassion from the rest of the free world over hurricane Katrina's devestation. Not even as little as a mention of prayers for the victims nor an offer for more material assistance. Why is this? Have we spoiled the rest of the world with our foreign aid? Do the French, Gemans, Spanish, Austrailians, Mexicans, Britons, Saudi Arabians, Egyptians, oh, and the United Nations think that all Americans have cash bulging from their pockets? Have you heard of any offer of assistance from any other country in the world? Is selfish isolationism the norm now, until they need help? 8:47:01 AM    comment [] trackback []
