The so-called "Democrats" in the US are rapidly losing any credibility as the alternative to the governing "Republicans", when neither party cares to address the Katrina/New Orleans fiasco, going on TWO YEARS after that storm. The US military budget is approaching $1.5 billion PER DAY. 1/3 of one percent (one day's spending for the military) would go a long way.
But this seems to have dropped off the political radar..........I wonder where the fingers will point when the much predicted heavy storm season arrives in the Carribbean....?

"For decades, Mississippi and neighboring states with large black populations and expanses of enduring poverty made steady progress in reducing infant death. But, in what health experts call an ominous portent, progress has stalled and in recent years the death rate has risen in Mississippi and several other states."<br />
