I saw this:

100% self reliance!

No one whinning!

No one calling for the govt. to come and help!

So many volunteers and equip. that they asked them to hold off until the w/e, because they have too many volunteers and too much equip. right now!

The only complaining that I've seen are from the Democrats and the media!

I also see a number of news reporters, trying desparately to find a person to talk to, that they can put the blame on someone for these fires! Not accepting the fact that this is a natural phenomenom!

Because the emergency response is so good there is no need to complain! Keep in mind most of that area is republican voters.

Funny...I heard Bush had FEMA up and running right away on this thing...it's a white district, you know....

and I heard that there were arsonists invovled...

We sure don't travel in the same circles EVEN on TV Wabash, do we?

With a republican governor, as opposed to a democrat governor they are trying to get out...

Woot! Good for them.That part of California is a regular for fires every year. The people know the drill and are not caught off guard when evacuation is called. The CDF is well rehearsed also so no big deal to them but this time so many were going at once it did catch them short handed for a day or two.

I completely understand.

I think it is admirable not complain and accept something for what it is. I personally cannot stand whiney people. Whether they be Democrat or Repblican.

There in lies the big difference in the response by the people of Ca.!

Funny, you aren't paying attention Cookie!!!!! I..."me" posted the ARSON thread here FIRST yesterday...it's not All arson!
Sure Bush had FEMA up and going as soon as possible, he didn't want to hear any complaining from LIBERALS!!! However, the citizens of Ca. did Not ask for his help...he volunteered it!
You can't possibly give me credit for any intelligence can you? Just complain, complain, and bitch! But I fully expect it!
Wabby = 1 Cookie = 0
