Never Yet Melted » Undeserving Poor http://neveryetmelted.com The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted. -- D.H.

And what did the poor do with their housing? They certainly didn’t maintain it. Obviously, they rode it hard, and put it away wet. And now, 8 years later, they expect Jimmy to come back and fix it all up for them again. Besides, nobody told them them the place had been built atop some former dumps. Call Erin Brokovitch! Those poor people are feeling a trifle queer, breaking out with mysterious skin rashes, you know the drill, and they need to sue. After all, Jimmy Carter has got that presidential pension. There are deep pockets there.

Michelle Malkin is experiencing a bit of Schadenfreude this morning.
