Dear Jason Linkins & Elyse Siegal,
We would like to correct some false and misleading material in your commentary on Ron Paul and the recent FEMA related attacks made on him.
1) In attempt to illustrate the ridiculousness of Paul’s anti-FEMA position, you write that the Galveston Sea Wall was built (and repaired after Ike) with Federal dollars. While the sea wall was repaired with Federal assistance in 2008, the original Galveston Sea Wall was funded through tax abatement and the sale of bonds issued by Galveston County.
