Actually, no I was not aware that of the flooding that took place last night. I no longer live in the area. But that does not change my opinion of the federal government's role in natural disasters one bit.

As for my pigs lining up at the trough, the comment was aimed at nobody in particular but directed generally at liberals, moderates, and even some conservatives who look to the federal government to bail them out of situations that are entirely predictable.

The federal government has no right to borrow money to bail out victims of predictable natural disasters and sticking me, my children, and every other current and future taxpayer with the tab. As I said before, in the not so distant future the federal government will no longer be able to provide this kind of relief, yet people who receivd no benefit will still be paying for peoples' failure to behave responsibly.

Finally, I do not blame people for seeking relief in these situations. Our government has trained people well to grow dependent on it to solve all sorts of problems in which it should not be involved. I blame the government for burying this country under a mountain of debt that is already dragging our economy down the tubes and discouraging companies from hiring employees.

He is in a no flood zone there for he wasn't behaving irresponsible. Why would you buy flood insurance when your not in a flood zone or anywhere near a flood zone. As he said the water had never been there before.

I could imagine your reaction to someone drowning in a lake, "They should have been wearing a life jacket," "Let Them Drown."

How about you quit being a politician for 5 minutes and be a human being.
