I have been wondering and now someone has said it better than me ...
Where are all of the Hollywood celebrities holding telethons asking for help in
restoring Iowa and helping the folks affected by the floods?
Where is all the media asking the tough questions about why the federal
government hasn't solved the problem? Asking where the FEMA trucks (and
trailers) are?
Why isn't the Federal Government relocating Iowa people to free hotels in
Chicago ?
When will Spike Lee say that the Federal Government blew up the levees that
failed in Des Moines ?
Where are Sean Penn and the Dixie Chicks?
Where are all the looters stealing high-end tennis shoes and big screen
television sets?
When will we hear Governor Chet Culver say that he wants to rebuild a 'vanilla'
Iowa, because that's the way God wants it?
Where is the hysterical 24/7 media coverage complete with reports of
cannibalism?
Where are the people declaring that George Bush hates white, rural people? Lets
don't go here -- God forbid!
Is there loss and less real individually than anyone who faced Katrina or Rita?
How come in 2 weeks, you will never hear about the Iowa flooding ever again?
The water is still there!
Let us at least remember to continue to pray for these folks. We can do that!
