America at it's best ? The Aftermath

Year's ago the slogan was
WHERE'S THE BEEF

Today's new Slogan is
WHERE'S THE RELIEF ?

The wave of storms, tornadoes and flooding has idled thousands.

  • 29 still missing from tornado


  • Storm like giant 'pounding house'


  • Joplin flags show 'strength, hope'



  •  The official missing list drops to Zero

    • More deceased victims have been identified
    • At a memorial service, a sign reads "Hope"

     The list of people missing in tornado-ravaged Joplin, Missouri, shrunk to eight on Wednesday, as officials told CNN that the bodies of two people previously on the list had been identified.
    Stanley Kirk and Maria Alvares Torres died in the storm, and their next of kin were notified, said Seth Bundy with the Department of Public Safety.
    News reports suggested that two other people listed as "unaccounted for" may have been declared dead as well. Bundy said declarations are not made official until family members are informed.
    Authorities also announced that a woman who was not listed as missing has died as a result of the severe weather that struck May 22, Bundy said.

    Memorial held at destroyed high school


    Over the weekend, Joplin City Manager Mark Rohr told CNN the death toll stood at 142. Not all the names had been released. It was not immediately clear whether the deaths announced Wednesday were included in the toll.
    The May 22 tornado flattened buildings, destroyed neighborhoods and killed more people than any other U.S. tornado since modern record-keeping began in 1950.

    "It's indescribable ... just devastating to see all the destruction of my school, my home," said Joplin High School sophomore Chanci McGowen, CNN affiliate KODE reported. "My whole neighborhood is gone, but everyone's OK."
    The station broadcast images of a memorial service at the school, where a sign out front just had the letters "op" from "Joplin." Someone used what looked to be duct tape to add letters, creating the word "Hope."

    'Tornado' once banned in forecasts
    The warnings seem almost ubiquitous today, but the word "tornado" used 
    to be banned in weather forecasts

    Survivors: 'We are so, so lucky'
    Survivors of the Joplin, Missouri, tornado describe their 
    experiences riding out the deadly twister.

    This year we gave 1.3 billion dollars to Egypt just for their friendship
    This year we pledged 3 billion to help the relief efforts to Middle East Nations
    Lords know how much we gave Japan after that Earth Quake / Tsunami as well as Haiti in their crisis.
    but yet we get nothing from neighboring countries when we have a Natural Crisis.
    At some point every American needs to Question this and demand answers
    Your Tax dollars are helping others but not helping us when it's needed.

    After Katrina, the media blamed the lack of response on the Bush administration's dislike of black people.

    Can we then conclude from the lack of media coverage and response 
    by the Obama administration that Obama doesn't like white people?
      
    Where are the Hollywood celebrities holding telethons asking for 
    help in restoring those States effected by the great Flood of 2011 
    or the furious Tornado's that ripped through the South East?  Why 
    are we not doing more towards helping those folks affected by 
    the Storms?  Where is good old Michael Moore when you need him?
    We bet that if this had happened to a neighboring Country the 
    Media as well as Celebrities would have been all over it.               

    Why is the media NOT asking the tough questions about   why
     the federal government hasn't solved this problem? Why our tax 
    dollars are not rebuilding these area's like they should be. May their 
    focus is on their back Pocket and not the Nation Crisis needs.

    ......Asking  where  the FEMA trucks and trailers and  food  
    services are? 
           
    Why isn't the Federal government moving these displaced people 
    into free hotels in their area ? 

    When will Spike Lee say that the Federal government blew up 
    the levees that failed in Des Moines ? 

    Where are Sean Penn, Bono, and the Dixie Chicks? 

    Where are all the looters stealing high-end tennis shoes, 
    cases of beer and television sets? 
       
    When will we hear Governor Chet Culver say that he wants to 
    rebuild a 'vanilla' Iowa ... because that's what God wants?  

    Where is the hysterical 24/7 media coverage complete with 
    reports about what our Government is willing to get accomplished 
    to help those that need it now.

    Where are all the people screaming that Barack Obama hates 
    white, rural people? 

    My God, where are Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, 
    Oprah, and Ray Coniff Jr? 

     Where are the gov't. bail out vouchers? The government debit cards? 
    Yes Mr. President, at what point are you going 
    to Help our Country through a natural Crisis ?

    More people died in these floods and Tornadoes than 
    from Katrina and the Gulf Spill...
    how come the media doesn't report that?!!!!! 

    There must be one hell of a big difference between the 
    value of the people in Central North America than the value of the 
    people of elsewhere.
       . 
    HERE'S THE REAL TRUTH: 

    THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF GOVERNMENT CONTROL OF THE MEDIA, AND SOON TO BE GOV'T. CONTROL OF INTERNET, CELL PHONES, RADIO AND ALL COMMUNICATION AS WELL AS THE PRESENT NETWORK NEWS ON TV.  

    BETTER WAKE UP, AMERICA...  
    You better stand up now because the American Regime is about to come to a Neighborhood near you. 

    WHOMEVER CONTROLS THE MEDIA CONTROLS THE COUNTRY! 
    THIS IS ONLY ONE OF THE "ARMS" THAT IS NOW IN PLACE TO ACCOMPLISH THE TAKE OVER OF OUR COUNTRY!  

     Yeah, Socialism is just around the corner so don't complain 
    when it shows up at your door step.
    By then it will be to late !

    Please Pass this unedited, un-doctored, 
    factual information forward ..... 
    Our hopes are it will get Americans thinking, 

    The media Certainly WON'T, 
    because they have a gag order 
    from guess who. 
    Our Federal Government !

    Everything above has a valid point.
    Question why we help others but can't help ourselves !

    Tell Congress we want our tax dollars to be spent 
    on Our Crisis's First 
    then help others.
