Well it sucks for everyone if their house burns down or is flooded...but I have my own problems and dont want to pay for theirs! I live in SF and if an earthquake hits here I dont expect the guy in FL to pay for it. It was my decision to live here..Risk vs. Reward!
Life sucks! Get a helmet!Comment

Doubt the imbecile himself can do much, but the "mechanisms" for support appear to have rolled into place and better than the N.O. fiasco - tho, at least so far, - it's hardly in the same league as Katrina.
But... the main support time has not happened yet - the aftermath, - there is plenty time to screw up yet.
Ya got to wonder why developers elected to build homes on dry scrubland hillsides which are candidates for fires of this kind. But... some folks live on the San Andreas Fault and others at the foot of volcanoes - life can be a mystery

You should really stick with subjects you have some knowledge about.Doubt the imbecile himself can do much, but the "mechanisms" for support appear to have rolled into place and better than the N.O. fiasco - tho, at least so far, - it's hardly in the same league as Katrina.

I blame Bush for a lot of shit, but this isn't one of them. This is really just a perfect storm of shit being flung on California. They have the worst possible weather conditions for fires, including 90 MPH winds blowing fires faster than they can be fought.
It's California, fires happen, it's just part of life. There is nothing Bush can do to slow it down.Comment

Agree PK
All the elements are there and we can't compete against extreme weather conditions. It's the complete reverse here - the height of the rainy season and the problem is more landslides in certain areas. Developers will insist in not thinking straight and denuding hillsides, then whatever "development" slides down into mud. A few people have been killed so far, but the situation is settling down now.Comment

We don't need that douchebag's help out here. That shithead still hasn't done anything to help those poor folks in LA. I'd rather they get the help they need.Comment

No I agree with you. They the feds will only come and fuck things up even more. But in a case like this the national guard should be doing something other than fighting a war in Iraq.
BTW its not global warming that caused this fire. It was the Green movement and their mismanaging of the forests and under brush.
Am I the only one that gets pissed at people who think the federal government is here to save us from everything????
They have wildfires in California people. It happens every year. Why is this so surprising?
They have hurricanes along the gulf coast too, and tornadoes in the midwest, and intense heat in the southwest, and freezing fucking cold in the northern midwest, and huge snowstorms in the Rockies and the northeast... God people.. did you not pay attention before you moved there??? SHIT HAPPENS!!!!!!!
Get out of your house, hope like hell your insurance is paid up, and deal with life when it is over. Yeah it sucks... but what ya gonna do??? Move somewhere else where SHIT HAPPENS????
The government is here to assist if they can.. but to save your ass because you can't save yourself????? You may as well get that casket ready right now if that's what you are waiting for.
