1. Bad enough they have lost everything to Katrina
now they can't file bankruptcy because an amendment that would have allowed people to file after a natural disaster occurs was voted down by the repuke controlled congress. This administration is so f*&ked up!

9. Same assholes blaming the victims of Katrina on
...their own sorry selves for being around during a disaster. That 12% is without a doubt the prime enabler of Bush and his ilk.

3. The poll is missing a third choice...
Instead of "Yes/No" it should have third option:

o The bankruptcy bill should be thrown out!

4. If its bad for Katrina victims its bad for any person impacted
by financial catastrophe.

Why do we only exempt these folks?

I mean, wtf is this country all about anymore?

5. I say ditch the bill altogether

It's just one more thing designed to make the rich even richer.

Here's the latest:
Yes 91% 2546 votes
No 9% 243 votes
Total: 2789 votes

I see 243 rabidly wealthy people voted.

6. These polls always make me wonder
Just who are the pinheads that make up the 8% who don't want these victims to be exempt from the new and draconian bankruptcy bill?

11. Why is this even a question?
God, I guess we should start looking for the latest Charles Dickens book to come out any day now.
