Extreme Circling

It seems extremely circular. The constant in and out of the media of Katrina victims, FEMA, and the complete lack of regard for American citizens, but when one constantly travels in a circle how do you get anything done? 11,000 FEMA trailers are sitting in Arkansas while evacuees are struggling to find housing now that FEMA has begun to phase out their hotel rooms for victims. You may be asking yourself why there are 11,000 empty trailers sitting in a field, and I would love to tell you they will get to where they are needed most in mere hours. The truth of the matter is, FEMA, in its necessity to drag itself out of the disgusting sinkhole of a mockery it threw itself into, ordered trailers that cannot be used in a flood plain. Now, I get that perhaps they were thinking they don't want to move people back there, but it isn't their choice really is it? There are trailers down there. St Bernard Parish has trailers. I think about 30% of what it is needed for the thousands who plan to remain in NOLA, but these trailers can obviously be parked on a flood plain. Fine, FEMA is just trying to get their act together. Trying to deliver something that can be seen as aid to people who are still missing children and loved ones. My question is this-

How could FEMA not return these trailers for ones that are acceptable to use in a flood plain? Why are 11,000 trailers sitting in a field in Arkansas? Why can't FEMA get their asses in gear and figure out what the hell is going on!?!


I have to admit, this helps a bit.
