Looks like the Compassionate Conservative's Trickle Down Theory turned into a Gusher or Katrina Flood Exposes United States HIDDEN poor.
Karen Hughes new job is to try and spin this horrible view of the U.S.
WTF - wouldn't it be better to have policies to help people in the 1st place - than to try and Spin the Republican Dirty Laundry.
If they would have only spent the 700 million to shore up the levy - they could have kept them pesky poor people hidden.

KATRINA EFFECT A FIRST TASK
One immediate task for Hughes will be countering the negative effects abroad of the Hurricane Katrina disaster.
Television images of desperate and mainly black survivors of the storm stranded in danger and squalor in flooded New Orleans fueled perceptions abroad that the United States was a racially divided country in which the government is unconcerned about its poorest citizens.
"People have seen things that no one likes to see," Hughes was quoted as saying in the San Antonia Express-News.
