Subject: RE: Outraged over Bush! (Hurricane Katrina)
And by the way, yes rarelamb's posts are indeed very racist. Quite a few of the people who were unable to evacuate due to lack of transportation (in many cases, they had cars but no money for gas) were the "working poor". NOT people on welfare. The working poor work hard, often at more than one job. But they are working for less than subsistance wages and they live from paycheck to paycheck. Many of them don't have any extra money for things like the gas to get them out of town in case of a hurricane. Especially at the end of the month when they have used up all of their last paycheck.

The working poor, both Black as well as White, don't deserve your slimy BS either, rarelamb.
