Katrina


No matter what kind of spin the politicians attempt to put on the disaster I will never forgive my government for the unnecessary suffering the victims of Katrina were subjected to this week. In June of 1948 the Soviets set up a blockade of Berlin. The United States immediately began what was to be known as the Berlin Airlift and dropped food and supplies which saved the city. If we had the means to do that almost sixty years ago, we certainly should have been able to start dropping water and food from helicopters at the Super Dome and convention center as soon as the hurricane winds died down. If a president can be impeached because he had a girl friend, the current one certainly qualifies for impeachment because he is responsible for untold suffering. The man who was president in 1948 said: "the buck stops here."
