    Default Dr. Ron Paul vs FEMA

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/0..._n_943108.html

    I watched this last night and everything DR Paul said went right over Anderson Cooper's head!

    Having experience three Cat 5 hurricanes and Katrina, Dr Paul's comments are dead-on.

    The states and people were much better off preFEMA. The responsibility is with the state and its citizens. Yes, the states need help for rescue during an emergency. But, they don't need FEMA running the show in a storm's aftermath.

    Anyone remember FEMA going around to shelters after Katrina handing out $2,500 debit cards?

    Where do we go without great leaders for the defense of our liberties? Who will defend our right to live our lives _as we chose_ without others taking that from us? The answer is, as it should be, no one. We are the defense of our rights and should always remember that. Libertarian blogger

    Yep, they spent the money at one Walmart and took all of their goods back to one across town for Ca$h which was then used for Coach bags, Jurey, 40's,Crack, Tatoo$,ect.

    Marv, you mean you don't agree with the good Dr. regarding a Balanced Budget Amendment or stopping foreign banks via the Fed from control of our currency?

    FEMA recently built close to 500 houses with Hurricane Rita funds here in southeast Texas. They would tear down an old house that suffered slight damage and give the homeowner a new one. The homeowner must live there for a set amount of time, I believe 2-5 yrs. and then are free to do what they want with the house. These houses are all in the hood. Don't forget, W was potus then.
