Depressingly Familiar


...but that's NOT New Orleans. It's Findlay, Ohio, and it, like a fair bit of the Upper and Central Midwest, is experiencing significant flooding. The hot temperatures are adding to the misery.

I wonder when the wingnuts are going to start hollering for the abandonment of the region...after all, parts of the Midwest flood pretty much every year. Will the wingers complain about their tax dollars being "wasted" on infrastructure that's only going to get inundated at some point? Or is that sort of talk reserved for places like New Orleans...you know, where "those people" live.

Just wondering.
