I don’t disagree with you one bit. I’m just making the case for people to take responsibility for themselves. Yes, we do bleed. As to why do they get the preferential treatment? I think you and I both know the answer to that. And that is a burr under my saddle as well.

hussein lied and people died. Less than a week and barry is a failed President... unless you are a marxist who loves sharia.

Nawlins is (mostly) inhabited by cannibalistic animals... not customers.

Why haven’t I seen Mitch McConnell on the news or on the steps of the US Capitol even talking about this, much less pointing out any lack of FEMA response?

Thanks- I'll use that one.

I think it's both funny, and makes a point-- IMHO, Obama is proposing and promoting an economy by, and for, looters and pillagers.

Looter Guy is an appropriate commentary..

Can we say it? Can we say it?

Yes we can!

Obama's fault!

Yeah, it isn't fair, but neither were all the "Bush's fault" cries. Payback and all that.

My wife and I purchased some farm property in Kentucky several years ago and She now lives there with our Grand Daughter as I am stuck here in Florida trying to sell this house.

Anyway she made a quick web page of her time with the storm. Some good pictures and for those of us not living there a glimpse of what happened in the rural areas.

the page is: http://www.barnettscreekfarm.com/news/IceStorm2009.htm

Julia Roberts will hold a telethon for those suffering in ice-battered areas. George Clooney, Brangelina will run to their aid. Oh wait, nevermind. They only bashed FEMA when Pres. Bush was in office.

No problem.

I went to that website to check it out, and didnt like what I saw, so I agree that it doesnt deserve any publicity on FR.

The photo istelf is funny, though.

They are not going to be able to do much with only $5 million dollars from the Fed. Look at the declarations. With that minimal amount of money given to the State...?

Sorry, Kentucky - you have the wrong ethnic makeup and shouldn’t expect help from the fed. But do get back to work soon so that you can pay taxes to support the “right” people.

In all seriousness though, it sounds pretty bad. My wife’s family lives in Louisville and most of them are still without power. My father-in-law is one of the fortunate ones with power and he has a dozen kids and relatives staying with him.

It is bad - there's still several hundred thousand people without power in Eastern Kentucky, Northeastern Tennessee, and southwestern Missouri. About the only federal help that I know is on site is TVA and that's because they have customers in many of those areas. This ice storm really tore up the grid.
