After half an hour of alternately crying and shouting at the TV:

Me: I can't believe this is happening in my country. What's wrong with the government??? God, I hate Bush!

MDH: I don't hate Bush. He can't help that he's an idiot. I hate the fuckers who voted for him.

They just reported that Fidel Castro offered to send medical supplies and doctors to help. Refugees are on their way to my city. I just hope I can help, somehow.

ETA: Anybody else watching this thing on NBC? Amazing how quickly they cut away when that man said, "George Bush doesn't care about black people." I thought Mike Myers was going to choke...

As an ex-Houstonian of 14 years, thank you for volunteering. While Bush has attempted to tarnish the good Texas-name, I'm still proud of its citizens. This state has shown amazing good will. Again, thank you.

You're most definitely welcome. Texans banding together, whether to help fellow Texans, our neighbors in Louisiana and Mississippi, or abroad, reminds me why I love being here so much, and why I never want to leave.
