New Orleans

Post by Rock Island Ranger »

Louisiana Senator, Mary Landrieu (D), is presently asking the
Congress for $250 BILLION to rebuild New Orleans.

Interesting number, what does it mean? Well, if you are one of 484,674 residents of New Orleans (everyman, woman, child), you each get $516, 528. Or, if you have one of the 188,251 homes in New Orleans, your
home gets $1, 329,787. Or, if you are a family of four, your family gets $2,066,012.

I saw this and couldnt help but wonder, what the fucking fuck is this insane bitch thinking? There are literally BILLION being paid through insurance already, another several billion has already been spent in private donations, relief funds, ect....whats another 250 BILLION.

Dear Pastor, I imagine her line of thinking is this money is for the poor people who had no insurance, the folks who have been sucking off the gov't sow for years, spitting out babies every 10 months and doing absolutely nothing themselves to rescue themselves or their families from their plight.

Here is a simple concept that pretty much all of us are able to wrap our minds around; if you loose your shit, and it is not insured, then you are perverbally fucked. Why is that such a complex thought process for some people?

I don't want to loose my house in fuckin' hurricane either, so, I LIVE ON THE SIDE OF A GODDAMN MOUNTAIN!!!

If anyone is stupid enough to live below sea level, without insurance, then they deserve to fucking starve to death.

I say eliminate the beauracracy, just give everybody a check for $516, 528.....in a couple of weeks, it'll be filtered through the casinos and into the mainstreem economy where it can do some good. :D

Not to play a time honored tactic of the DNC, but isn't this person one of those whose election was highly contested and questionable a few yrs ago? Hmmmmm. Surely it isn't time to repay some campaign / election favors. :roll:

This country is so fucking corrupt sometimes. :evil:

I think he was just telling us how he really feels Pastor... :shock:

...and I agreed with every word!

Perhaps he has graduated from the Pastor's School of Pontification. :wink:
