Mexico's Katrina

Over two thirds of the Mexican state of Tabasco is under water following inundation by tropical storms and with more rain on the way.

President Calderon has sent the Mexican army into the region and food and water is being distributed to the over one million displaced by the floods who are now living in shelters or walking through the flooded streets as they leave the region...

Link to video sent from the region and how you can help: here.

1. I saw video of this last night....

It's definitely as bad as Katrina was here, or worse. I'm glad to hear their government is doing something right away, at least.

2. Mexico sent its military to help New Orleans

I hope Bush doesn't send Blackwater to help Mexico...
