    Besides the tragedies and damages, Isaac should also bring a lesson to those that want to eliminate government. It would be difficult to outsource responsibility to private enterprise for things like this.But, if we continue in the path of the GOP's proposals in this "make my day" hate fest they had in Tampa, will will soon outsource even the armed forces to China or India. The GOP needs to outsource brains so that we do not have this subversion of the US government masqueraded as patriotism. A fine line indeed.Ideology is a pillow so that non thinkers can sleep under the care of manipulators.

    In Jamaica, West Indies, they begged a couple to leave and avoid the hurricane. They replied "We are from Norway,
    and have nothing else, we aren't leaving. " They were found dead in each others' arms.
