NEW ORLEANS - Dozens of Hurricane Katrina victims still living in Federal Emergency Management Agency trailer parks will have to find new housing by today, as the agency works to shutter the temporary facilities it set up after the 2005 storm.

You mean people are still living in trailers, more than two years later?

[Red Badger]

Is there a tornado scheduled for today?............

[Retired Chemist]

No more worries about dangerous gases in the trailers.

[gridlock]

How is a evil heartless government agency like a tornado...

>> You mean people are still living in trailers, more than two years later?

Yeah, but only because the pandering Dimocraps can’t pass a bill to buy them all a McMansion at taxpayer expense.

[kingu]

How dare those folks at FEMA toss people out into the cold in the middle of winter! Quick, dispatch reporters there to get horrible stories about how they’ve been abandoned by the government...

[Red6]

Surly the liberal can twist this into some class warfare story where Bush is at fault.

People like this were probably living in shacks and trailers before the storm!

[golfisnr1]

The trailers are probably worthless after two years of being trashed.

[Slapshot68]

Evil Republicans taking away their homes.

"You mean people are still living in trailers, more than two years later?"

Here in Houston the Katrina Holocaust Survivors are all paid up in free rent to next March 2009! Not 2008, but 2009! And they ain't looking for work!

[Badeye]

Screw em. They’ve had two years to get their life back on track.

[papasmurf]

It’s all Bush’s fault.

[BipolarBob]

Evil Republicans taking away their homes.

Even worse, holding people accountable.

[popdonnelly]

Here’s a great opportunity for millionaire liberals like Bill and Hillary and Ted Kennedy to donate money so that these poor people can stay in trailers. Jesse Jackson can kick in a few bucks, too. I’m tired of paying for their guilt trips.

John Edwards will buy them, move them next to his house, and put them all together to make servants' quarters. After all, you can't expect a busy family like that to take care of themselves.

[the_devils_advocate_666]

It’s all Bush’s fault.

Nah, obviously Global Warming is to blame.

I am in no way supporting the idea, but they do for the rich all the time. They replace these big houses and condo’s every time a storm hits them. I have had people come to me and tell of there relatives that laugh and brag about getting there places replaced every so many years. They shouldn’t be doing any of this. Build your house on sand and pay the price.
