Chuckle... You do have a point. I, personally, wouldn't care if the hand of
someone rescuing me was from 
Mars or a Democrat. Just so I was rescued. Life is life. Politics is politics.
(Yeah, I am Raymond Quinn 
(R-CA)). I live in a VERY "red" area in a "blue" state. Barbara Boxer, Diane
Feinstein, and Nancy Polosi 
are an embarrassement to me and I voted for Arnold in the recall election. We
got rid of Gray Davis, now 
to get rid of the three "lady stooges" mentioned above. I tried last
election... 
I rarely talk politics, however I do listen to a lot.

In my opinion, saving lives should be non-political, non-partisan, and done as
soon as possible. As a 
member of and an Assistant Emergency Coordinator for Tulare County Amateur
Radio Emergency 
Service (ARES), (www.tcares.us) we practice for such emergencies. We try to 
figure out what went right and what went "wrong". I believe that after the
recent disaster in the South, 
we should do the same thing. Let's find out what went wrong and fix it!

On another note, Diesel fuel DROPPED locally from $3.399 per gallon early last
week to $2.999 at the end 
of the week. Where I fuel my 18-wheeler it was $3.349 last time I fueled. Today
it was $3.129.
Gas, however, has only fallen from $3.199 to about $3.049. I still only spend
$20 per week. I just stay 
home more and pay less in state and federal taxes due to the fact that I buy
fewer gallons. 

Words I would hate to hear: "We're from the government and we're here to help."
