To the idiots that fault people for living in the wrong "zone", saying they deserve it and the government should not help them WTF???
What about when your bank goes down and you apply for that $100,000 FDIC insurance? Same can be said for everyone with money in the bank. They were warned, guess they just deserve it. Is all your money in your mattress yet?
Oh yes, the government is forthcoming with lots and lots of money for the greedy bankers. $85 billion overnight!!! Who the hell cares about a bunch of poor useless eaters.

No one is saying they deserve it. Ever hear of personal responsibility. It is the issue here. Something you are dancing around in your financial post. What's wrong, didn't buy enough gold when it was $425/oz 3 years ago when the economic collapse rumors started appearing? Act on a hunch, use your intuition. The inside connection. It will make you an insider, instead of obviously disgruntled. Truth is a Stranger to Fiction

You obviously haven't been paying attention. Please inform yourself next time.
Many people planned to leave Friday, a full day before the storm hit. This makes sense to a lot of people. For one, the evacuation orders weren't given until the day before, so they likely packed on Thursday and planned to leave Friday. Second, staying until Friday allowed them one less night to have to pay for a hotel room, etc.
They were told that it wouldn't get bad until Friday night. Many of them woke up Friday morning planning to leave, and guess what? It was a FREAK hurricane where the waters had risen and flooded out areas in the middle of the night, a whole 24 hours before the storm even got there. They woke up planning to leave and couldn't go anywhere, the escapes were blocked by floodwaters. That's why you had a lot of people calling for rescues during the day on Friday.
Were there knuckleheads who stayed willingly? Sure, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't have compassion. And your response completely discounts so many people who planned on leaving and got stuck by a freak occurrence. Please inform yourself next time.
As for Sara, this thread has to do with a cover-up, not whether you like someone or not. If you are advocating that the government dispose of and cover-up the death and destruction to people who are not of your ilk, then I feel sorry for you.
Also, your responses completely discount the concerns of the people who DID evacuate. They can't return to their homes, and many of them are livid right now because they are being denied information about what happened to their loved ones and their property.
The fact that media is not paying attention...means no telethons, no concerts, no fundraising, no attention like Katrina got. How are those responsible people going to re-build their community without outside help?
Your opinions also lack an informative perspective and therefore contributed nothing to this thread. Quoting: The_Venerable 412220

You never know what's going to happen. But after living here in Houston, and going thru this mess, this useless eater can handle just about anything. It doesn't hurt to be prepared, and good neighbors are a blessing. The FEMA crap and the PODS (points of distribution) were pretty much a joke. It took the power company forever to get their act together. 20 years ago after Alicia, they had power back on to most of Houston in 3 days. This time it took them 4+ days to even get started on the residential areas. I planned for 3 days (but had extra) and got by with the help of neighbors and friends. You can't depend on the government. |

 | | Re: Hurricane Ike Coverup: Call to Action | Quote | Here is a survival story I found:
Man stricken with loss when rescue never came
By ALLEN G. BREED – 1 day ago
GILCHRIST, Texas (AP) — Shell-shocked, hungry and still reeling from the loss of a woman who'd clung to rafters with him against the full fury of Hurricane Ike, Bobby Anderson limped off ravaged Bolivar Peninsula in a pickup truck reclaimed from the gulf.
"I'm hoping they find her alive or well," a dazed Anderson said Monday night after emerging from the darkness across the debris-littered road that led past rows of beach houses scoured clean by the storm.
Anderson refused to identify the woman swept away before his eyes when Ike raked this barrier island Saturday, except to say she was the girlfriend of a former employee. But he showed no such restraint when it came to his bitterness over a rescue that never happened and post-storm help that never came.
"What assistance?" the 56-year-old home designer and builder said from the cab of his battered black Chevy. "I mean, there's helicopters landing there every day. They don't bring food OR water. I mean, you know, old Gov. Rick (Perry) dropped the ball on this one."
For the past three days, Anderson and about 20 others "scattered here, there and yonder" in the communities of Crystal Beach and Port Bolivar have been sharing food and comfort, holding fast to what remains of their lives.
Anderson said he had every intention of leaving after the National Weather Service warned that people who lived on the fragile chain of barrier islands along the Texas coast faced "certain death" from Ike's massive storm surge.
Despite all the coverage, Anderson said he and his friend were caught off guard. When they tried to leave Friday, they encountered waters up to 4 feet deep engulfing the road to Gilchrist.
They retreated to Crystal Beach, and Anderson said a friend told him he could call for a helicopter rescue. He said he made the first call at 1 p.m. and told the dispatcher where they were. "OK," the dispatcher responded. "We'll come and get you."
When help had not arrived by 2 p.m., Anderson called again and got the same response. At 3 p.m., the same.
Finally, at 3:30 p.m. the dispatcher told him: "It's too late. We're not flying anymore."
Anderson said he and his friend had gone to a building that was under construction "because we felt like it was a good place for a helicopter to land." When asked to describe their ordeal, he refused.
"I'd really rather not," he said.
When search and rescue teams finally arrived on the island, Anderson told them about his friend and asked them to search for her. But there were no reports of her — alive or dead.
Rescuers asked him to leave with them. He refused.
Miraculously, one of Anderson's three homes on the island survived the storm. Anderson said he didn't want to leave his valuable computer and drafting equipment unprotected.
During the next two days, he and others found refuge in wrecked homes, a school and even a Baptist church. They subsisted on whatever they found lying around: boiled shrimp from a freezer, uncooked hot dogs, leftover pizza and cashews.
Anderson lost two vehicles in the storm, but he thought he could get an old pickup running.
"We had to take the starter off and get all the seashells and sand and everything out of it, and basically rebuild it the best we could," he said. Fortunately, one holdout had a battery charger and another had a generator to power it.
As he worked on the truck, he said he watched as search teams broke into storage sheds and "hot-wired" whatever equipment they could find. He said a man came up to him and threatened to commandeer the truck.
"They said they had the authority from President Bush to do what they want to do, to take anything they needed to get the job done," he said. "I didn't think it was supposed to be like this."
Anderson said he was able to keep the truck by telling searchers it wouldn't run.
At dusk Monday, Anderson hopped in the truck and set out for the mainland. Around 9 p.m., he encountered a state wildlife official escorting a group of reporters through Gilchrist's ruins.
Aaron Reed, a spokesman for Texas Parks and Wildlife, had seen the tearful Anderson the day after the storm. He gave the grizzled, disheveled survivor a case of water Monday night and told him of a place on nearby High Island where fellow holdouts were grilling food.
Anderson was planning to spend the night there before making his way to Beaumont.
As he slurped a proffered plastic cup of mandarin oranges, Anderson gazed at the Stonehenge-like remains of a once gorgeous stilt home. He'd worked on some of these homes; he thought they could withstand a storm.
But, Anderson said, "this was an out-of-the-ordinary storm."

I agree with you in that I think the message clearly got out to leave the area. However, there are a couple of things I believe need to be considered, on behalf of the people that stayed. The first is our trust in the media. With all the propaganda since 911 we seem to have created "the boy who cried wolf" type of effect. In other words people arent percieving danger in the same way. The second thing that I personally feel that needs to be done is doing away with the traditional hurricane rating scale. Having lived on the coast myself, I could see trying to ride a "two" out. In this case they should have just reported as a five.....cuz it wasnt the traditional cyclonic storm. If people would have heard "five" I think many more would have left. My heart goest out to any family that lost a loved one. I cant think of any worse fate than to lose someone you love. |

For the person who left a comment on your page, that is the type of misinformed opinion that betrays us. They believe that because this isn't as bad as Katrina, it doesn't deserve media attention. But how do we know how bad it is? We don't. It could be much worse. People like that are only going off of what the media has presented them so far. They are blind; unfortunately, they don't perceive it.

They were told to leave on the 11th, the surge came in preventing their leaving early on the 12th. They can't just walk out the door, they have to board up their homes, because it they don't and it is damaged insurance doesn't cover it.
How quick could you leave your house knowing you may never step into it again? What about kids, pets and elderly family members? Many were planning to leave early Friday morning, after boarding up their homes, and were unable to go because of the surge. A head full of dirt is what makes you enchanting, especially when you till it up for planting. [link to myspace.com]

UNLESS THE OP HAS A REASON WHY THE GOV. WOULD THE HIDE THE NUMBERS-DOES NOT MAKE ANY SENSE.
Financial crisis and insurance market at risk. In general terms, that is absolutely true. Someone else on here speculated that AIG had made bad investments on Ike not doing too much damage. I can't speak to that, although I wouldn't rule it out.
And either way, the risk to the financial market is there. In the short-term, a panic factor could be there. In the long term, huge $$ losses and casualties could put a squeeze on liquidity.
Of course, others would believe they just don't want to look like f'ups a la Katrina. That's what I thought at first, but I am convinced it has to do with the financial markets now. Quoting: The_Venerable 412220

While I can't call your faith in leadership a bad thing, I can't see it as plausible either. Government doesn't really care about people, it doesn't have the foresight to do so. It is made up of individual people carrying out their individual duty, and the sum total produces an uncaring effect.
If government cared about its people there would be no corruption, no wars, no reason to complain. Unfortunately, other motives are always involved. |

I do not believe there has been a cover up. That's not what I stated directly. It might be the government is not giving the area the coverage the people of the area feel they need to bring focus on their plight. So they speak out instead. I have no problems with that. To say I don't like someone is an irrational statement on your part not based in any facts. Do you tend to do that sir? That's called biasing your story to suit your needs. Not a good practice or anything to be looked upon with respect.
Another thing, why in the world would I chastise someone for having flood insurance, boarding up their house and evacuating to safety? That is exactly the right thing to do.
In my humble opinion, you stepped out on a limb trying to knock me down on something you only perceived me as saying or thinking. Just stick with the facts and you can't go wrong. No reason to get emotional, personal, or resort to name calling. This is something you are doing to me, not me doing to you. You are projecting. Keep fighting the good fight, but make sure you are not distorting the truth through your filters of perception. Be aware and conscious, good advice for all in these times.
