Army engineers for Lousianna region short of funds?
I could swear I recall a story not all that long ago that there had been tremndous budget cuts to the regional Army Engineers in the Lousiaan area and that there was an outcry at the time that this would significantly reduce their ability to recover from a Hurricane. Anybody know anything about this?

I know that's budget politics, and I know you can't avoid pork, but it seems to be a damn shame that this government can waste so much money on stupid things, yet neglect areas in real need. Granted, this may all be relative, and maybe Sen. Stevens of Alaska would take a different stance, but bleh. |
Sen Stevens of Alaska can go suck a dick >:
