Iowa Floods

[VR021302]

 

Where are the Hollywood celebrities holding telethons asking

for help in restoring Iowa and helping the folks affected by the floods?

 

Where is good old Michael Moore?

 

 

Why is the media NOT asking the

tough questions about why the federal government hasn't solved this problem,

asking where the FEMA trucks and trailers and food services

are?

 

 

Why isn't the Federal government moving Iowa people into

free hotels in Chicago and Minneapolis ?When will Spike Lee say

that the Federal government blew up the levees that failed in Des Moines

?Where are Sean Penn, Bono, and the Dixie Chicks?

Where are all the looters stealing high-end

tennis shoes, cases of beer and television sets?

When will we hear Governor Chet Culver say

that he wants to rebuild a 'vanilla' Iowa .... because that's what God wants?

 

Where is the hysterical 24/7 media coverage complete

with reports of shootings at rescuers, of rapes and murder?

Where are all the people screaming that George Bush

hates white, rural people? My God, where are Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt,

Oprah, and Harry Connick Jr?

How come in another two weeks, you will never hear

about the Iowa flooding ever again? Where are the government bail out vouchers?

The government debit cards?

 

There must be one hell of a big difference

between the value of the people of Iowa and value of the the people of

Louisiana .

Pass this unedited, undoctored, factual information

forward..... to get Americans thin

 

 

king.

not to sound ignorant, but i didnt even know there was an iowa flooding. i guess thats your point too, and i just proved it. That's sad. I pray for the victims.

Our company got a lot of work because of all the displaced people in Iowa last year.

[Zembonez]

Not enough minorities in Iowa to create a media frenzy I guess?

 

Hard working normal people with insurance aren't newsworthy to the mainstream media. They can't lay blame on the government or rich people... so it isn't worth their time.

[Dukers]

The media is the 4th branch of the government.

 

IMHO.

Iowa isnt flooding,

 

That is a year old. LAST YEAR when it did flood. I think 15 towns along the Iowas rivers were partly flooded. There was only 1 Death. Bad, yes but not quite like when the hurricane damaged the US coast like a bomb, from florida to texas,Georgia, mississipi, louisiana and put 80% of the new orleans area under water. and caused almost 2000 deaths

 

and to answer those questions, It was on the News 24/7 for awhile, Fema was there, the president was there,National Guard, Coast Guard. And about 470 million dollars in Aid. And its the midwest, we arent a bunch of punk A$$e$ that run around looting our own shit and shooting at the rescuers!!

Yeah got that email the other day myself. Folks in the Midwest will get over looked because they have too much pride to ask for help. You're supposed to get up every morning and make your own way, not look for the first FwonKing hand out you can get. I'll stop now before I get wound up.

I think it shows who has class... and who doesn't. I'm sorry for the folks in the MidWest having problems but I am proud of their never give up attitude.

I know the flood is old news, but it goes to show that a majority of the nation is oblivious to what goes on in our country, unless it involves large number of deaths, war, or politics

Class, now there's a word that is slowly slipping away lately. Yeah I'm with you as far as being behind 'em, look at what happened down here in Houston and Galveston area after Ike, there was some looking for a hand out. But most proud Texans just got up the next morning and started to rebuild. I'm just saying.
