...and Morcia, you appear to be the leader! Sorry, Courtney, I thought it would be you.

"wiped out by tornadoes and you dont get any help? you are a moron. every area hit with tornadoes gets declared a disaster area."
--->No, every area hit by tornados does not get declared a disaster area. And anyway, I think the point was not that a state government declared a disaster, but that the people that live in tornado areas didn't whine and complain when morons like you didn't run up here and offer your money or your services. I personally dedicated much time and much money to assist hurricane victims in 2004 and 2005. WHAT WERE YOU DOING?

Sure, people get help. But most of it is from neighbors helping neighbors, and insurance companies paying claims, and volunteers helping those with no insurance; not Joe Citizen getting on TV and crying "Where's FEMA? I need help. I don't know how to help myself. I'm depressed, where's a counselor? I didn't have flood insurance, where's a lawyer? Help me, help, me!"

And, I have never see legislation proposed for CAT funds for the sake of anyone whose lives were destroyed by a tornado.

"just what do you think declaring a something a disaster area means? it means you're raping the rest of the country's tax dollars to rebuild..."
--->You just made the point of every supporter of personal responsibility and didn't even notice. "raping the rest of the country's tax dollars to rebuild" IT'S MY MONEY, NOT YOURS! IF YOU'RE GOING TO REBUILD WITH MY MONEY, I SHOULD HAVE A SAY IN HOW AND WHERE YOU REBUILD. OTHERWISE, LEAVE MY MONEY ALONE, AND DON'T ASK FOR MY TAX DOLLARS TO BACK YOU UP!

"...your trailer parks and deep fat fried restaurants so your cholsterol choked 300 lbs. bodies can get back on your over stressed feet."
--->And then you had to go and start calling names! I can see you have never been to the South and think we are all fat, stupid morons. Sad, sad, sad...
