Shelters To Close

In a few days hurricane battered areas and all government shelters will close. Thousands will be living in tents in Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama. The cost to rebuild the storms destruction is certainly in the hundreds of billions. America cannot sustain the costs of the "War on Terrorism" and the costs in rebuilding the south where millions have been uprooted and now tented. It is shameful to imagine America creating a third world environment, while wasting lives and condoning torture, in order to "control" the political and economic future of the middle east. By denying our own citizens who are suffering miserably here, our own neighbors, friends and family, is an insult to any notion of humanity and decency. The recent publication of "Victory In Iraq" is a smack in the face to the suffering going on here at home. The consequences of course will be more anger against Bush policy and political change.
