Recently I was following a truck with a Republican Party bumper sticker on the back. It read: "I take care of myself, thank you."

It made me wonder if Republicans in the states ravaged by the latest string of hurricanes will be accepting taxpayer aid from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

Maybe they will say, "No thanks." I'm betting, however, that they will say, "Gimme mine."
