Remember last year, shortly after Barry was inaugerated, Kentucky was hit by an severe ice storm? They lost power for days while suffering frigid temperatures. Not a peep from Barry or the regime. But the people of Kentucky put matters in their own hands and did just fine.

I think we have a tendency, because we totally despise Obama and everything that he stands for, to overlook some of the things that actually have been done in the face of regional disasters. It stands to reason that no administration could possibly get away with simply ignoring areas in desperate circumstances. I can’t speak to what is being or not being done in Tennessee, but there did seem to be an effort made in the case of Kentucky.
