Florida - The tragedy may be yet to come.

The destruction in Florida was startling; almost unbelievable. Mother Nature can be merciless. One can only hope the citizens of the four counties in central Florida will receive the assistance they need. I say 'hope' with just a touch of sarcasm. The State is still waiting for the assistance it requested back in December.

Of course, the Govenor spoke with President Bush - who assured Jeb's replacement that federal help would be provided. Hmm... If the Floridians are standing in line behind the citizens of New Orleans, they could be in for a very, very long wait.

You remember New Orleans, right? Katrina? (If only the Fed's did.) Of course, in defense of the Government, we are busy destoying/rebuilding/destroying/rebuilding Iraq. I guess America will just have to wait. Hmmm... It's the 'compassionate consevative's' way, I guess.
