Title: interesting take on Iowa flooding Post by: GrizzlyGator on June 23, 2008, 03:20:26 PM A reader from the Wolverine State wonders: Where are all of the
Hollywood celebrities holding telethons asking for help in restoring Iowa and helping the folks affected by the floods? Where is all the media asking the tough questions about why the federal government hasn't solved the problem? Asking where the FEMA trucks (and trailers) are? Why isn't the Federal Government relocating Iowa people to free hotels in Chicago? When will Spike Lee say that the Federal Government blew up the levees that failed in Des Moines? Where are Sean Penn and the Dixie Chicks? Where are all the looters stealing high-end tennis shoes and big screen television sets? When will we hear Governor Chet Culver say that he wants to rebuild a "vanilla" Iowa, because that's the way God wants it? Where is the hysterical 24/7 media coverage complete with reports of cannibalism? Where are the people declaring that George Bush hates white, rural people? How come in 2 weeks, you will never hear about the Iowa flooding ever again?

Title: Re: interesting take on Iowa flooding Post by: tess on June 25, 2008, 12:12:25 AM I have been wondering the same thing. Hmmm... maybe these news organizations should make themselves useful and interview all the people that whined about New Orleans. Obviously the people in Iowa are grownup enough to take care of themselves. What an odd way to go about life!!
