Perdue has asked for Federal Aid. Has not received word as of yet that I know of.

8 dead so far. I20 is a river. Literally.

Atlanta water facility is UNDER WATER at this moment and is it suspected that raw sewage is being swept into the Chattahoochie River which is now swirling around people’s homes. God knows what the drinking water is like.

Entire school systems are shut down around Atlanta. I keep waiting for Obama to say something, do something, but nope. He just has to reassure the country that he was black before he was President to a gap tooth comedian.

I’m curious. Has another sitting President gone on a late night talk show?

Not to mention Buckhead, which is high percentage of black population.

We all know that these upstanding examples of journalists are hitting those keys with equal enthusiasm regarding little barry zerø's total lack of timely response to this multi-State total disaster.

And we all know little barry would not be off somewhere pushing the Sørøs Death Care destruction of the U. S. economy, right?

The body of a 15 y.o. boy was found Tuesday morning in North GA. He and a friend were trying to rescue someone trapped in a Jeep when he was swept away.

Prayers for this young man and his family.

Maybe Obama doesn’t even know it’s flooding in GA. It might be above his pay grade.

yup. Gibbs will be all like “Obama is great.”

and the people of Georgia will be all like, “but we’re dyin’”.

And Jimmy Carter will be all like, “you fellow Georgians are racist.”

Everyone needs to realize that FEMA can’t just appear right away. The governor of the state in which there is damage needs to put in a request to receive federal assistance. Then the damaged area needs to be assessed and then the President needs to approve the request for federal aid. AND THEN THE FEMA WORKERS CAN COME IN AND HELP!

Oh bull crap. The media NEVER pointed this out when Bush was president. Hussein needs to be down there personally consoling people who’ve lost loved ones and their homes.

Instead, he guffaws like a buffoon on David Letterasshat’s show.

(I know what you said is true, I am merely pointing out the HYPOCRISY OF THE MEDIA.)
