On the comparison of Katrina with Iowa:

"Maybe I’ve missed it, but I haven’t seen the finger pointing, blame game and reports of looting and other criminal activity which were so prevalent in the New Orleans Katrina disaster. All I’ve seen and heard are hard working people, young and old, sandbagging and proudly fighting to save their cities, towns, farms and households....

but the point is they are not sitting back and whining about why somebody else isn’t doing more to help them and blaming everything on the government. And they continue to fight even though the flooding has not yet crested in many areas. These people are truly the backbone of America."

Well said sir. You have crystallized my rambling thoughts of the past week.
