You call it insensitive, I call it saying what needs to be said. First of all, this was no hurricane. The storm that hit New Orleans, that was a hurricane. This was just some rain and some wind that got a few people’s backs wet. All the people in this country talking about this storm are trying to make excuses for people who don’t want to get dry. And I’ll tell you, the people who live and stay in my buildings, they are always totally dry. And the towels are always cleaned immediately. While I’m not sure who cleans them, I do have people looking into that.

So you’re saying all this hurricane talk is – pardon the pun – trumped up sensationalism? I agree that Katrina was far worse, but while some say that those victims milked their situation, others say that George Bush…simply didn’t do enough. How would you have handled this devastating event differently?

We need to be addressing issues that affect the poor people in America, not the beaches in Mexico.

Mr. Sanders, so glad you could join us! I admire your pbumion. Tend your own garden first, isn’t that what they say? How do you plan to help the poor?
