By the way, it was Bushes lame response to Katrina that bought those contaminated trailers that people refused to live in, NOT Obama. It's just another legacy he got stuck with. Give ME a break.
I respectfully ask that you go back and read the previous posts and even the ACTUAL background history on those trailers before we get off on a different tangent. I just commented that it might be a good idea to help. As for contamination issues, some, not all have developed mold contamination from sitting so long closed up. Also there have been quite a few families that have petitioned for one and been turned down and some refusing to move out of the ones they are living in.
ALL AGREE that the FEMA AND STATE response was more than lacking and has hopefully been corrected since then.
The U.S. is, as we always have, stepped up to the plate to help those in need, even when we have real need at home. The loss in Haiti has touched a lot of people in S.E Florida, both my wife and I have co workers that have lost family or cannot find out about them yet.
PLEASE, no more of the 'legacy he got stuck with' crap. Every pres since Washington was left with something or another. One very interesting thing to see here are the political signs for the canidates for the next election... NONE of the Democratic signs are identifying the runners as Democrats! And this in a largely Democratic state. I hate to admit it but I will most likely switch parties, what is happening in Washington is NOT the change I voted for, guess I was just nieve. However, I am man enough to admit I was wrong.
Enough politics for me, sorry about the post.
