Iraq is directly linked to causing this as of now.

At least nine articles in the Times-Picayune from 2004 and 2005 specifically cite the cost of Iraq as a reason for the lack of hurricane- and flood-control dollars.
Quote:

In early 2004, as the cost of the conflict in Iraq soared, President Bush proposed spending less than 20 percent of what the Corps said was needed for Lake Pontchartrain, according to a Feb. 16, 2004, article, in New Orleans CityBusiness.

On June 8, 2004, Walter Maestri, emergency management chief for Jefferson Parish, Louisiana; told the Times-Picayune: "It appears that the money has been moved in the president's budget to handle homeland security and the war in Iraq, and I suppose that's the price we pay. Nobody locally is happy that the levees can't be finished, and we are doing everything we can to make the case that this is a security issue for us."
Quote:

One project that a contractor had been racing to finish this summer: a bridge and levee job right at the 17th Street Canal, site of the main breach on Monday.
what could have been fixed for millions, will now cost billions.

this is not a new concept but the fact is, when you are dividing a pie, and theres only so much, the slices get slimmer.

well - iraq is using up national funds ayt alarming rate.

this is just ONE EXAMPLE of what is to happen because of iraq spending.

what city is nexT?

Listen Fletch.....it is my opinion and i stated it..so yes...i can say it to anyone i like....i really don't give 2 shits who you are...

In other words...do not state your opinion of my posts because i send you traffic?

Fletch...if you choose not to do biz with epic over this thread...that choice is yours...but last time i checked...that is what this board and this country thrive on.....so if i hurt your feelings ..too fucking bad....

It was your name calling that made your post directly insulting to me.

you did not just state opinion, you want to insult people and then expect them to keep sending you sales?

not how it works in my book, i actually do let the way affiliate managers interact with people in forums speak for the integrity of the program. And frankly, without "media" around, I would never even attempt to contact you for business. Media was much better at this job, I see no reason to even continue.

As far as me taking on design work from epic, give me a break. I dont even accept site design work, so go try to play that card with someone else.

You have been trolling me and now I spoke back to you and youre just trying to save credit now. too late, and yes, the way people interact with affiliates on message boards has a profound impact on behind the scenes program choices.

I remember whwen you first came on boad you said you wouldnt be flaming or trolling, it wasnt "your style" Well here you are calling me ass, going off on me, trolling me around in threads because of my opinion on Iraq.

And im not one to just let affiliate managers talk shit to me while i send sales.

there are too many cam sites, and the fact I have been debating changing out epic casm for cam crush, simply made the decision easier.

there is no need for me and my partners to deal with companies who attack affiliates and then expect them to hold their tongue.

way too many cam sites out there

It is NOT my style..(but thanks for remembering)..you will see from any of my threads....seems you just take everything a little too literally...a good debate MAY have been in order...guess not....because i called you an ASS?
I am sure you have been called MUCH worse on this board.....

BUT the decision is made...no need to carry on.....correct?

You are right though Media did do a fantastic job at Epic and i am sure he is doing the same at PK *props media*
