"Facts Only", there you go again jumping to conclusions and making statements unrelated to any 'facts' at all.
The cracks in the wall etc all happened before I was even born so it would have been a little bit difficult providing a place for them now wouldn't it? When I grew up we didn't even have electricity until I was about 5 years old and then we didn't have AC at all and used a fireplace and coaloil heaters in the winter. You wimps today would feel like you were being abused under similar circumtances. We all survived and felt self reliant. We didn't depend on the government for anything. We were poor but we were proud and provided for ourselves.

Facts, I presume you meant caulking, but whatever. BUY is the key word. I also grew up in a house with cracks in the wall. Money was the issue and we did not seek and would not have accepted anybody's pity OR charity OR a government handout. We survived, toughened up and did what we had to do.

Like I said, no clue....which Bush are you referencing? I take it you loved both of them.
Maybe if there was a coal electric plant in your back yard you would change your mine about the protection the EPA rules afford you. Just once I would like for you to have constructive blog entry instead of blaming everyone else for your pitiful troubles that no one cares about...holes in the wall...get real, buy them some chalking...

Facts Only, I swear if you ever say another unkind and ungenerous thing about one of the best Presidents we've ever had, I'll come over and slap your stupid face till it's raw. I heard enough of all the lies and hateful talk about Pres Bush to last me a lifetime and I'll not tolerate it anymore. And, if the EPA has it's way now, your fuel bills will increase approximately 20 to 30% over the next year or two, there will be a large loss of jobs, the economy of Texas will suffer mightily. And, the EPA is basing it's criteria on some pretty suspect data. I wish you would change your name cause there's almost never any "facts" in your statements! And, the EPA is wanting to enforce it's carbon emission rules now because that lying *sshole Lobama couldn't get his CAP AND TRADE BILL passed last year and he's trying to sneak it in the back door by excluding Congress from the process....he's making sure that almost no one in the USA has any authority or sayso about policy except himself. The people and what we want be damned. Fluke Lobama, Fluck his "I've never been proud of my Country" wife and all the "I know how to spend your money better than you, and I know what you should be eating better than you, and I just in general plan on helping you and all you have to do is give up all your rights and let me make decisions for you" minority, extreme left wing liberal socialist communist marxist DEmocrats.

"Facts Only", I do have a clue....the outages only lasted 15 to 45 minutes....that's not hardly enough time for the house to cool down and the electricity is back on....You 'think you know it alls' make my *ss tired. Don't need your condescention today. My Mom and Dad lived in a house with big cracks and had to stuff newspapers in the cracks in the winter to keep the cold out....the trouble today is that so many people are spoiled and are big cream marshmallows, soft, creampuffs, wimps, wusses. So, try that big "you don't have a clue" on someone else like YOURSELF that really does not "have a clue".

OBTW: Who founded the EPA? Republicans under Nixon.
Who claimed executive privilege so he don't have to give up the documents showing that he forced the EPA to lower its standards, like in California and other highly polluted States to give polluting companies less restrictions so they could pollute even more?
Republicans under Bush!!!

4 th Generation Texan: You have no clue...if you were one of the thousands of people without power in 20 degree weather you would be the first to say something. As far as the EPA, here is where you really do not know what you are talking about.

1) Rolling Brown outs...a very rare weather occurance caused a minimal amount of electrical problems...I personally had none....Seems like a whole lot of 'much to do about noting'.
2) I wish the state of Texas would declare the EPA null and void in the state of texas and refuse to administer their policies and refuse to follow their orders...Under Obama, apparently the Carbon Emission Cap bill could not be passed so Snakebama slithers around the side door, comes in the back door with the EPA to do the dirty work. When is someone going to tell those Communist in the White House to sit down, shut up, and go the hell home and leave Americans alone.
3) AT Abbott seems to be doing a crack job in Austin and is on his game...that's much appreciated.
