Katrina evacuees on Alabama coast upset over FEMA move order
BAYOU LA BATRE, Ala. Hurricane Katrina evacuees living in a Bayou La Batre park are being notified that the facility is being phased out and they'll have to move.

No deadline set yet for closing, but FEMA officials say for safety sake they want to close the Zirlott Park facility.

Hurricane season begins June First.

Lillian Gartman, an 82-year-old grandmother, has called a FEMA trailer her home since Katrina wrecked her Bayou La Batre house. <snip>

3. There's an editorial in the NYT
The title is Still Battering Katrina Homeless. It says that it looks like the administration is trying to drive people into homeless shelter.

There's the link http://www.nytimes.com/2006/04/29/opinion/29sat3.html?_r=1&oref=slogin

More proof that Dubya doesn't care for anybody but his base, the "have and the have mores", and they are getting more and more than ever now by squeezing it from the rest of us.

4. But Dubya just posed with another hurricane victim!
He cares! :sarcasm:

I had thought the timing of the new W photos was odd.
