Hang in there, Galveston. 1b to Georgia may trickle down.

* GALVESTON, Texas (AP) - About 250 people who withstood Hurricane Ike on a coastal sliver of land will be forced off it so crews can begin the recovery effort, authorities said Tuesday, vowing to invoke emergency powers to make it happen.
County Judge Jim Yarbrough, the top elected official in Galveston County, said those who defied warnings that they would be killed if they rode out the storm on the Bolivar Peninsula are a "hardy bunch" and there are some "old timers who aren't going to want to leave."

Don’t get your britches all twisted. There is a possibility some of that money may trickle down courtesy of Sen. McCain and his wife and I don’t think we at FEMA would mind. Just remember Katrina and everything will be alright. Promise. Cross my heart and hope to die. What difference does it make if I am a Republican. Would I lie to you? In your condition??
As always,
BB
