Today marks the third anniversary of the Hurricane in New Oleans that swept in and devastated that community while the Bush administration watched on with apathy. Today, three years later, 80 unclaimed bodies were buried and given a solemn service replete with trumpeters. How can it be that in a city that size, 80 souls can go unclaimed? Were they no one's mother, aunt, brother or uncle? Were they homeless people that people walked by each day, recognized but never really seen? There were babies that were unclaimed, most likely they were swept away in the arms of their terrified mothers. Today I honor the tradgedy of the levy failures and I pray that in the future our government will rush to aid any victims of such a tragedy instead of standing by and watching as they float away to their watery graves. Heck of a job Brownie.
