What About Galveston Aid?

Something that has struck me in the wake of Hurricane Ike, isn't it interesting that we've not seen dozens of benefit concerts broadcast nationwide featuring the world's greatest collection of lefty bands?

Katrina hit and it was non-stop money raising. It hits Texas and we allow the Texans to handle it themselves because we knew they would, they're self-reliant Texans.

BTW, Galveston has entire islands that have simply washed away and the devastation is enormous.

Juxtapose the two cities.
