Aw, geeez... Colorado Springs spurns hurricane evacuees and bites the big one...

my (ex) hometown says about the evacuees, "drive them to Denver...!"

remember colorado springs...? the home of dobson's focus on the family...? the headquarters of northcom...? the home of the air force academy...? the capital of more fundamentalist evangelical christian organizations than anywhere else in the country...? the place where bush hung out watching rita strike...? and now the pinnacle of compassionate conservatism...?

City officials declared they've done enough for hurricane evacuees and have drafted a plan to let a faith-based charity and the NAACP take over relief efforts.

While no one will be denied social services, officials have asked a man who has bused in loads of evacuees to start taking them elsewhere, as officials fear social services will soon be stretched too thin.

"I think we have every reason in the world as a community to be proud of how compassionate we've been," City Manager Lorna Karma said Monday. "But I think we need to say, 'No more.' Or we need to drive them to Denver."

i'm so proud... disgusting...
