another shining example of the fuck-up that is FEMA

Liz Taylor opened her mother's mail last week to find two checks worth nearly $6,000 from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

The checks were written to Sandcastle Apartments, owned by Taylor's mother, for housing Hurricane Katrina evacuees.

But the two Madeira Beach units haven't housed any evacuees.

1. wow......

my guess is it is just a way to smooth things over. give out as much money as you can to the entire area without solving any problems. They did not even send some one to check it out, heck even social services does that.

2. But they are refusing to pay my friend, African American,

for housing and feeding 4 Katrina victims!


What should I tell her to do?

3. they operate off of the assumption that "white people vote"

so she can call fema and check but the dickwads will still not do anything.

4. I told her that I would write a "nice" letter to Fema for her nt
