This is why I can't talk politics with my brother. He actually said all that believing every word. Luckily he didn't say it where any of the aunts could hear him, since they've been spending the last week making sure that their aunt & uncle, cousin, and cousin's kids are all safely evacuated and staying with another cousin with no possessions in the world other than what they could fit in the car when they left. It's things like that that make me wonder if we're really related...
In other hurricane relief news, one of my LJ friends was just flown down to Alabama today after volunteering with the Red Cross. With no money or stuff to donate she decided to donate herself instead and put her life on hold for an indefinite amount of time. Stay safe, Z. Update when/if you can.
