Exactly and state Senator Cleo Fields was just on MSNBC with Tucker Carlson blasting the Red Cross for not going in. Said he was there 5 days driving buses and was never shot at. He said it was not that dangerous and even if it would have been that is no excuse not to help people. He makes me sick!

Here's the tale of a woman who wound up coming to my area after Katrina;

Pay particular attention to the last paragraph.

The Red Cross is apparently "screwing up" just like they after 911.

We only give to the Salvation Army now.

So why didn't the people of New Orleans help one another? Why don't they do it now instead of waiting for handouts and complaining?

Didn't Cleo buy himself his own bus with taxpayers money? Why didn't he use it to evacuate the people in New Orleans?

In all due respect, given several articles on the subject I've seen tonight in believable publicans and my post #9 and then #17... I think this congressman is blowing smoke and it wasn't safe for Red Cross to go into the city.
