Barbara Bush: Things Working Out 'Very Well' for Poor Evacuees from New Orleans
By E&P Staff - Published: September 05, 2005
Accompanying her husband, former President George H.W.Bush, on a tour of hurricane relief centers in Houston, Barbara Bush said today, referring to the poor who had lost everything back home and evacuated, "This is working very well for them."
The former First Lady's remarks were aired this evening on American Public Media's "Marketplace" program. She was part of a group in Houston today at the Astrodome that included her husband and former President Bill Clinton, who were chosen by her son, the current president, to head fundraising efforts for the recovery. Sen. Hilary Clinton and Sen. Barack Obama were also present.
In a segment at the top of the show on the surge of evacuees to the Texas city, Barbara Bush said: "Almost everyone I've talked to says we're going to move to Houston."
Then she added: "What I'm hearing which is sort of scary is they all want to stay in Texas. Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality. "And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this--this (she chuckles slightly) is working very well for them."

How about this one:
It is racist to call American citizens refugees. by the Reverennnd Jacksonnnnnn.
But of course nobody will question that asinine remark because they'd wind up on the bad end of one of Reverennnd Jacksonnnnnn's shakedowns.
Recently on Larry King Live, U. S. Rep., Republican Christopher Shays, said that President Bush's real albatross is not Iraq, but Katrina. With Katrina, the public saw arrogance and incompetence. This feeling is pervasive among Democrats and the press. This incompetence and inept responce to Hurricane Katrina will be a major liability for Republicans in 2006. Katrina was Bush's worst hour and the press's best.
