" VILLAHERMOSA, Mexico (AP) -- Hungry and dehydrated victims of one of the worst floods in Mexico's history scrambled for government packages of food and medicine, while at least 20,000 people remained trapped Monday on the rooftops of homes swallowed by water.

Houses sit in floodwaters Sunday in Villahermosa in what has been called one of Mexico's worst natural disasters.

Residents were running dangerously short of food and water after nearly a week of floods left 80 percent of the Gulf Coast state of Tabasco under water and destroyed or damaged the homes of about half a million people."

It's funny that they can't swim when they are in their own country.
