If Dems in power - paying for Katrina...
If the Dems were in power, I can probably guarantee everyone that every Rethuglican on tv would be demanding to know how the Dems were going to pay for Katrina's damage.

This is not to say the Feds should not pay it, but just an observation of hypocrisy that is allowed to go unchecked.

It's like the war in Iraq. I have yet to hear a Dem get tough when asking the Bushies where the money is coming from.

2. The pukes are already complaining. If Dems return to power...
...please, let it be so...I'd demand that every single tax break for the wealthy and all corporate welfare be rolled back. Fuck the robber barons.

3. If the dems were in power, it's quite possible that the levees would
have been shored up enough to minimize the damage, and the Repukes would deny that they had argued against spending the $70,000,000 it took to do the job . . .
