Living just a few miles west of a major beach (Myrtle Beach, SC) having to pay attention to hurricanes and having hits my family has found it took little to be ready. Hurricanes are nice enough to give notice like the unwanted family member. We have always choosen to ride out the storms here, but knew when Hurricane Floyd at one time a 4 or 5 Cat was predicted to hit here we would not be able to and prepared to leave. Thank God it dropped greatly. There are several truths in most if not all of these messages. The better you know your neighbors, the better off all are. The better prepared you are, the better off all are. We do not live in isolated area as some (semi rurual) do but we citizens have cut trees out of the road because crews were busy on main roads (and yes their homes), we have moved generators from house to house to save food, we have stayed with family who suffered less damage. Yes the more farm, hunter, contractor type the people are usually the more they are likely to help just because they are use to and have the ability and do not know they are not suppose to. In all of the talk of New Orleans we will pay (sadly) for a major flood zone to be rebuilt when in my area FEMA said no money to rebuild in flood zone of much less risk than some of NO. Not only here but other areas also which just make sense. Now, voters, who do you vote for? Who, that is elected, have you communicated with? Why do you think we have millions coming across an open border as they are? Want a lesson in welfare state that many elected selfish people have trained millions for, go sit in your hospital emergency waiting room one evening. They are so filled with welfare and people who will pay not one cent (many are not legal citizens), yet those who keep such running are working with sickness often worse. Do notice you are not hearing the same "whinning" from the two staes east of NO where the main winds hit. They have had whole towns wiped out. The attitude is so different. God teaches we have responibility for ourself and others (a theme repeated often in these messages) and one practiced by early settlers. This has nothing to do with income or social class. It has to do with the class of the individual and that of the community's class.

I wish I could fully understand Mr. 2ndhandlion last comment. I think he is saying both parties are on the "liberal" slant one way or another. (As a left handed very consersative I don't appreciate left or right either.) We would do well to know and understand the history of this great nation. We are a people found on individual rights as to property and God. Not on the lack of either as the ACLU and other would have us think. The term "God Bless America" is more than just a wish. He has, more than any other country that has ever been. Now, again such as the ACLU is telling him to get out. Lets us ruin what has been created by many honest hard working people you bless.
