The disaster relief is a disaster and who will get the blame, the Bush

I fear your logical explanation will be invalidated by irrational voters.
Remember, the people who are dead and in peril in Louisiana rushed to polls
a few months ago to vote for an amendment to prohibit same-sex marriage, and
while they were there they voted Republican. They voted for 4 more years of
an administration that cut funding for flood control, including levee
constriction, for New Orleans. For some reason, people fear gays so much
that they will endanger themselves and knowingly vote against their own best
interest. As long as Republican can appeal to the dark side of our
population, they will prevail. Last year it was abortion, this year it is
gays, next year it will be something else. Never underestimate the power of
hate.
