ELEPHANT SAFARI: hunting with a mouse

Today there were rains and floods in Houston. When the water receded on the Gulf Freeway- Federal Interstate 45- they found a thirty-seven year old lady and her 16 year old daughter trapped in their car under the water.

The other day a Iraqi legislature member was arrested with a suitcase full of money. He was alleged to have been stealing $75,000,000.00 per week for some time.

On TV you don't see the Billion with a B dollars a month we throw in military subsidy to the munitions suppliers to blow up another country and create more business for them and Homeland Security in the form of new enemies we have generated.

Just that suitcase full of stolen cash, or even the legally paid taxes we have paid would have fixed the perennial flooding at the Telepsen underpass on 45 South. Or just $100,000 would have bought a nice sump pump for that federally funded death trap.

The Iraqi military invasion ordered by w.bush is an illegal war crime. It is part of the reason we can't afford to repair our own infrastructure so that the last living actions of a mother and daughter would not have been clawing at interior trim to escape the coffin our politician's incompetence and corruption provided for their last terror.
