Jon Stewart mentioned that last night too!! He said Jindal's comment about volcano monitoring......like why would we spend money to predict natural disasters? Because if a disaster did occur, it might kill a LOT of people!! And speaking as if he were Jindal he said, 'volcano monitoring? That's like predicting that levees would be over-topped......it'll never happen!!
And taking this one step further, as an Oklahoman, it would be like not bothering to predict when a tornado is likely to occur!! The government as well as the local stations spend a lot of money so that they can predict these things early and save lives in the process! If they acted on the Jindal plan, they would just throw out all of that expensive equipment and let tornadoes kill people without warning the public!! I don't see that happening any time soon..........people around here know about tornadoes and they know they can bring death and devastation to their communities in a short period of time. Early warnings can save lives........even if they do have to rebuild their homes. Good for the Mayor of Vancouver..........everyone should let this jerk know he does not have an idea nor a plan......... ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2009 7:33 PM Subject: {Dawgs/Dittos} Jindel > > > Jindel scoffed at the $140 million in the stimulus for volcano > monitoring.....That will hire people to read and maintain equipment on > the mountain that will give warning to those in harms way when St. > Helens next erupts..... > > So let's quit monitoring hurricanes that might hit Louisianna, that will > save us some money too...!!
