How horrible... perhaps those of you on the east coast/south can organize
some sort of flotilla and help these poor people?

That could be dangerous. *Better to support govt or Red Cross agencies who
have the knowhow & contacts to do what's needed.


*Here's an example...................

Charlie Crist, the governor of Florida, just announced his state has an
emergency relief site up for Haiti, and that search teams from south
Florida have been "federalized" to aid in the rescue effort.


Of course, he's a smart conservative who understands what needs to be
done when it counts. Mayor Nagin and ex-Governor Blanco could learn a
lot from this guy.

Unbelievable that the citizens of NO put Nagin back into office. NO,
corrupt to the end. At least the state threw Blanco out and put
Jindal, a conservative, in as Governor. Unlike Blanco I'll bet he'll
be able to ask for federal assistance in a proper, timely manner. Can
probably slap some sense into Nagin as well. Use those damn buses!
