Damn straight. This is crazy. Bush looking out over the disaster and saying it's got to be "double the devastation on the ground" just doesn't make me feel good.

I live in earthquake country. Do my fellow Americans think I deserve what could come? Will there be help when it does? I'm loading water into my truck, and shoes and a spare jacket. Because I don't think I'll be getting any help when OUR disaster hits... and it will.

Geez. Is this my country, to which I've happily paid my tax dollars because I believed it the whole mythology-thing, in spite of being educated to the contrary? Aren't we supposed to be better at all this?
