"The vain is popping out in my neck right now. Some complain that St Bernard government has not given them enough time to repair their homes. I’m not great at math but hasn’t it been 42 months (3-1/2 years) since Katrina -- when is enough time?" --The Rosenburgers to TP.

Jer Responds:

Oh, ya do warm my heart to the fullest <G> Speaking about--is that same vein attached to any part of the heart? Or perhaps wired to an ice-cube?

When is enough time? Obviously not everyone is as well off as you are Rosenbergers!

I say, since all have loss something, and not all have the abilities, let's just bring the poor unfortunates to the guillotine and behead them for "Not doing their duty and being whole again, for being in dire straits financially, for not pleasing some who would rather send those who are poor in finances and spirit packing out of the parish, for shaming those who have struggled for 3 years and might take another 10 years to feel better about themselves? Or, perhaps for those who need a voice to rally behind when all hope seems lost and you're shouting at them, even though they cannot afford a mental health clinic, because they had to get their house wired?

--shameful.

Besides, those time-frames can get people in trouble, placed in prison or thrown from office for slamming their only possession--the land they must sit on in hopes they can get more finances, etc. during this troubled economy. Laugh if you will, Rosenburgers. Let's hope all goes well on your end that you won't have to plead your best supplication for mercy someday.
