Mightiest Nation

It's almost a year since Hurricane Katrina erased most of the gulf coast. So far, only about 16% of these people have gotten back to anything like a normal life. Seems like we should be able to do better.

Casualties, 1300.
Missing, 6600 (including over 1000 children).
Cost, 120 Billion and climbing.


Oh, and we're still in that war, experts say maybe for another 10 to 15 years.

November can't come soon enough.

Sorry to be depressing, but sometimes it has to be said lest we forget the responsibility that comes with being citizens of the mightiest nation.

The whole Hurricane Katrina thing is pretty sad. Sometimes you have to wonder what our governments are doing.
