How can you NOT think so? I can’t believe the magnitude of Katrina’s devastation. I’m reading horrific stories about death, destruction, chaos, and violence. What the hell? People are raping women in the Superdome while there’s all this crap going on? Of course, the government is to blame for its slow, unorganized response. And yes, the whole aftermath is racial. Go Kanye! Tell it like it is!

Well I suppose we should try to be constructive despite Bush’s utter incompetence (ok, cheap shot but jesus, he did hire his inexperienced buddy to head up FEMA). Anyway, there are many ways to assist, but the easiest probably is to donate. Please consider making a contribution. In case you’re wondering, Oxfam usually gets my vote, but don’t forget about the animals: check out Noah’s Wish, the only org dedicated to helping animals in natural disasters. You may experience some website glitches caused by the heavy web traffic. Alternatively, you should be able to contribute via Paypal to the org email, info@noahs-wish.org. Thanks!
