....All because a certain President did not take the initiative to take what would eventually be his problem by the horns early on in the scheme of things...
She was my Moms 1st cousin.
Never let anyone forget action 72 hours earlier would have made the difference.....F&VK Hanity and his Yellow Bus excuse...
She still has yet to be figured in the official number that died because they didn't recover her body for 3 months.

Poor dear. I wonder how many were found like that. I remember they would not enter homes where no one answered and there must have been many who were found much later.

4. My condolences. There simply are not enough words |

We airdropped food supplies to besieged Berlin during the height of the Russian threat against that city.
Yet some fifty seven years later, we no longer thought of using air drops, to bring rescue people and supplies into the City?

I watched the nightmare that was Katrina unfold...and I believe that all of those who were lost were 100x better than those pretending to care.
Peace be with you, rsmith6621.
on edit: "all" instead of "al". My L key is lazy.

I can't imagine the horror your family must feel; it's bad enough just reading about it. "...didn't recover her body for 3 months"... :cry: her body being unrecovered and unidentified for so long is beyond heartbreaking.
