Dear Mister Bush...
Dear Sir,
You know that 1 billion dollars in FEMA aid that everyone is blithering and dickering over? Some of which went for champagne toasts at Hooters and Girls Gone Wild videos? I'd like to quickly interject my request as both a taxpayer and a sane individual....please for the love of peanut butter do NOT engage in what will amount to be an awesomely expensive and monumentally retarded "sweeping invesitgation" involving litigation, legal action and the CIA knocking on some prisoners cell and demanding the already spent $1000 back. I understand that this is an election year and that politcians on both sides are going to rally forth in hordes extolling the virtues of such an investigation, but really can you not see that it is only going to tie up more money and saddle the already drowning FEMA with a noose of death. The agency needs an awesome overhaul as it stands and heading into hurricane season, this would not be the time to spend another billion dollars knocking on the doors of trailer homes and determing whther people bought an air-conditioner or took an all expense paid trip to Fiji. Speaking of trailers, did you know that thousands of people are still living in those trailers that FEMA bought them, some with as many as 8 people crammed into the one bedroom boxes of cramped space? These people are facing another hurricane season in structures worse than the houses in which they once lived...
So while the media harpies have a flippin field day with the latest FEMA sanfu, could you, Sir, please use some of that hard lined attitude you so like to spout in the case if Iraq ("we're gettin' the job DONE", "progress, people..progress...") and do something about Louisiana? Jesus.
Thank you.
