Katrina survivors are not "refugees" in their own country.
Jesus. Did anybody watch Oprah today about the hurricane aftermath? I'm at a loss for words. It's just unbelievable what is going on down there... it's beyond Western society's concept of reality. I will donate money, but what people really need are their families to be found and a safe place to sleep.

Quote of the day from Barbara Bush (where does Dubya get his way with words from?):
Barbara Bush, who accompanied the former presidents on a tour of the Astrodome complex Monday, said the relocation to Houston is "working very well" for some of the poor people forced out of New Orleans.
"What I'm hearing, which is sort of scary, is they all want to stay in Texas. Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality," she said during a radio interview with the American Public Media program "Marketplace." "And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this is working very well for them."
Her comments came as the two former presidents visited with hundreds of the 23,600 hurricane refugees and announced the creation of the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund.
