The company that I worked for still has 3 offices in Florida, from the last hurricanes.

You just don't have a clue about the type of cr@p that you have to go through. Insurance Companies that want to rip off their customers.

Prices of materials going through the Roof (good pun). Local, state, federal officials all with their finger in the pie, often with conflicting standards. When the last storms hit Florida, IF YOU ENTERED THE STATE WITH PLYWOOD, or other materials, and did not have a license
specific to that storm, you were jailed for 7 years. Thats a fact

And now for the real issue, just who do you think will work on a roof, so steep you need to be a mountain goat, with the
air temp at 109 and the heat on the asphalt at 140 plus. Just try it, it melts the soles off your shoes. If you guest
Hispanic, your right. In almost 4 years of doing this we never had a Whie crew that was worth anything. This is fact not fiction.

Now a little bit concerning Bush. Did you even watch the TV today? Interesting program on 9/11. Osama bin Laden declared WAR on the USA in the Clinton Administration, its a fact. Clinton did NOTHING but screw Lewinsky. And brave Senator Kennedy not only screwed Mary Jo but he killed her. I guess the choice is real clear vote for a president that screws everthing in sight and does NOTHING or vote for a president that does what he says.

LMAO, that post was hilarious.

I'm sorry if people want to defend the president's choice for the head of FEMA; for crying out loud the goofball was a g** d*** Arabian horse association flunky.

So you want a Republican appointee to kiss Democrat ass too?

Maybe they could mate and make a mule and then some real work could get done? ;)

Heh, that might be a good "mascot" for a 3rd political party. The Mule's!!

The elephants never forget,

The Donkey is stubborn,

but The mule has stamina. Or not.

She even turned down Federal aide to come in and help with law enforcement BEFORE the Hurricane hit and she said no. SO before people go off on George W. at least have a clue and know the FACTS. I am not defending the guy, hell. I didn't vote for him (or Kerry for that matter) but to place him as the reason that this occurred is not only misguided it is flat out being ignorant of the real facts. But hey, both major parties and their minions have their political agendas to attend to right?:roll:
Umm, you're kinda late to the game, huh. Where were you when TLC needed help?
:p
