This text is from a county emergency manager out in the western part of North Dakota state after a snowstorm.
WEATHER BULLETIN
Up here, in the Northern Plains, we just recovered from a Historic event--- may I even say a "Weather Event" of "Biblical Proportions" --- with a historic blizzard of up to 44" inches of snow and winds to 90 MPH that broke trees in half, knocked down utility poles, stranded hundreds of motorists in lethal snow banks, closed ALL roads, isolated scores of communities and cut power to 10's of thousands.
FYI:
George Bush did not come.
FEMA did nothing.
No one howled for the government.
No one blamed the government.
No one even uttered an expletive on TV .
Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton did not visit.
Our Mayor did not blame Bu sh or anyone else.
Our Governor did not blame Bush or anyone else, either.
CNN, ABC, CBS, FOX or NBC did not visit - or report on this category 5 snowstorm. Nobody demanded $2,000 debit cards.
No one asked for a FEMA Trailer House.
No one looted.
Nobody - I mean Nobody demanded the government do something.
Nobody expected the government to do anything, either.
No Larry King, No Bill O'Rielly, No Oprah, No Chris Mathews and No Geraldo Rivera.
No Shaun Penn, No Barbara Striesand, No Hollywood types to be found.
Nope, we just melted the snow for water.
Sent out caravans of SUV's to pluck people out of snow engulfed cars.
The truck drivers pulled people out of snow banks and didn't ask for a penny.
Local restaurants made food and the police and fire departments delivered it to the snowbound families.
Families took in the stranded people - to t al strangers.
We fired up wood stoves, broke out coal oil lanterns or Coleman lanterns.
We put on extra layers of clothes because up here it is "Work or Die".
We did not wait for some affirmative action government to get us out of a mess created by being immobilized by a welfare program that trades votes for 'sittin at home' checks.
Even though a Category "5" blizzard of this scale has never fallen this early, we know it can happen and how to deal with it ourselves.
"In my many travels, I have noticed that once one gets north of about 48 degrees North Latitude, 90% of the world's social problems evaporate."
It does seem that way, at least to me.
I hope this gets passed on.
Maybe SOME people will get the message. The world does Not owe you a living. (Comment this)
Natural Disasters are NOT pleasant as WE all know. And your comment is one to be appreciated when referring to the ability of Americans working together to help each other survive the rath of Mother Nature. However, here are several links for you and anybody else to read in regard to the "FYI" statements of the hoax email you most likely received in regard to the North Dakota blizzard. Simply copy and paste them into your browser. Plus you can Google: North Dakota Blizzard. It is always important to research your facts before stepping outdoors into a snow drift that might engulf you. As Americans, we MUST all care about each others well being such as the victims of that 2005 blizzard,..and ESPECIALLY the victims of Katrina,...not to mention the victims of hoax emails. We are all in this together.

May we all live as ONE Nation - NOT divided as this bush administration has been trying to make us live. Help keep OUR America strong and remember,..no one can fool,...nor read Mother Nature's mind,... and if GW had a mind,.. maybe our great Nation wouldn't be in the shape it currently is in. The email you quote from is a HOAX and Mr. Cafferty speaks the truth. (Comment this)
