Shrub's Gulf Coast "Protection Plan"
Oh sure, they call it a "$40 billion dollar buyout" program, but let's not kid ourselves. This is Team Bush--the most blatant, brazen gang of goddamned crooks to control the Executive Branch since at least the Harding administration, and something tells me Warren had nothing on these vicious assclowns...I mean, shit, he didn't start a vanity war (and then fuck said vanity war up disastrously).
No, this proposed $40 billion--with a "b" billion--program is little more than a massive subsidy, not unlike the tax breaks contributing to the construction of luxury condos in Tuscaloosa, hardly an area of dire need following either the storm or flood.
By the way, that kind of money would go a long way towards funding genuine coastal repair, restoration, and protection from future events...and, funny, but there's only silence emanating from the whining classes who can't express their negative opinions loudly enough when it's merely perceived that--horrors--poor people and/or African American people might be the beneficiaries of any federal outlay. But I guess Jesus imprints his stigmata of approval on a gambling house, um, I mean, gaming resort.
WWJB? What would Jesus bet?
