NO MORE MONEY FOR THE GULF COAST

This is unbelievable to me. When I think of all the money we've spent in Iraq and Afghanistan..... and how much money we've shelled out to military contractors....it just makes me sick. I can't imagine how it makes the residents of the Gulf Coast feel..... I hope they remember this on election day!!!
