    "We had some nice plans,things we needed ect. that we planned to be able to just go get. But then 2 days before our check showed up somewhere in that photo is my brothers house, Our whole town has been with out drinking water for days and no restaurants have been open. so were spending ours surviving a disaster.

  • Be sure to thank God for the flood too, because that was also His doing.

  • Or, maybe, the flood was a natural disaster and God had nothing to do with it. Oh, and also, praying won't help you because God doesn't exist.

  • I'd love to help, but I done got wal-mart shoppin to do with my guvment check. Too bad all the money pulled to "stimulate" the economy will stimulate jack and shit, and leave any federal agencies that coulda woulda shoulda helped in your 2nd 100 year flood in 15 years with out the funding necessary to help at all. Oh well.

  • How clever, Sardog. It must have taken you all day to come up with such a meaningful comment in the wake of someone elses tragedy. Mary, my prayers go out to you and everyone else in Iowa that are picking up the pieces with no home to go back to.

  • Is that all some of you can come up with are snide remarks? All I see is a bunch of negative comments from people on pretty much all of these my own included. Grow up people. I just drove through Iowa and Missouri and I felt so bad for all of those people farmers lost crops and their houses,people lost their homes and their towns. I think its funny how so many americans are so damn spoiled they cant even be sympathetic to someone in need. DISGUSTING people, you should be ashamed.
