Also the victims of this were generally "typical white people". So there's no race angle either. Apparently this cannot be blamed on Bush.

Neither one of us knew at the time what was going on and every time I see one of these pictures I pray she and her family found their home intact. I know PCD lives that way and I pray for him as well. I met a woman on one of the buses in Disney (I always chat with strangers) who was from a city just 30 miles from Cedar Rapids.

The contrast is rather stark, isn't it! I'll bet crime hasn't increased in Iowa either, and gangs haven't taken over parts of their cities! No worries. The contrast is rather stark, isn’t it!

I was stunned by how little coverage this got on the morning news, GMA, Today and CBS. Are we not seeing it because there are towns that actually bused the people out ahead of the storm? Are there not enough minorities to make this a news worthy topic in an election year? PCD, I'll say a pray for your friends, family and neighbors. I called my uncle in St Louis and he said it wasn't like the 93' flood "yet", but that was yesterday about 3:00 p.m. I got back just a few minutes ago and am glad that Robert posted this.

They were hoping to get one semi-trailer load of bottled water, cleaning supplies, etc. They got FIVE PLUS! A kicker was that for every pallet of water purchased for $200, Cumulus would put a 2nd pallet of water on the trailer. I guarantee you that Cumulus bought many, many pallets of water.
