Maybe, but the President Bush's good friends on the left will only be too
happy to explain it to them. The Jesse Jackson's and Al Sharptons of the
world would be all over TV screaming about a lily white government loading
black people on box cars to haul them away from the homes to God knows
where.



Q: ...to God knows where?
A: Dry land and food.

Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are both ....idiots.

Many lily white folks rode the rails to a better life during the Dust Bowl
days.

Attitudes do change over time. The Dust Bowl was before the Holocaust.
The Swastika was a Native American symbol until the Nazis.

Oh pahleeze. I suppose putting them in airplanes would be too reminiscent
of 9/11.

Airplanes have seats and rest rooms which are seldom found in boxcars.

How long would they have been on this efficient means of trasnportation, a
few hours tops?

If this city was flooding (which it does, btw), I would GLADLY and without a
second thought put my family on a boxcar if that was the only means I had to
escape.

Is it the Holocaust? No. Then what planet are you on???

Feelings are fine until they get in the way of actually solving a problem.
Jeez!!

Rail lines run out of the city - people need to get out of the city. Hmmm?

Hum some Woody Guthrie tunes while reading this if it will help.
