The MSM is Obama’s unofficial public relations arm.
They’ve been that for years.

But these same propagandists ignore Benghazi.
Four Americans died in Benghazi ... 0bama went to Vegas.

I wish Romney had said something like: If you want to be productive, maybe you could help us load up some of these supplies for the victims of this devastating hurricane in which over 50 people died. Or if you’re the really the tough reporter you appear to be, maybe you could go down to New Jersey and ask President Obama some really tough questions about why he let four Americans, including the Ambassador, be murdered in Benghazi.

Obama signed the bill for sequestration which cuts FEMA funding by 10%.
Media decides to run with the story: "Romney is a threat to FEMA!!!!!!"

He was asked 14 times about FEMA? And the “press” is getting upset he won’t answer the question?
Uh....this is not the time to discuss FEMA and how well or not well they do their work. Yes, press...sometimes silence is the right response. Anything he says can and will be twisted, even though the answer may indeed be the right answer for our country going forward.
And while I do feel FEMA should not exist in its present form.(massive government charity arm)..it does and nothing is going to change that at this time.
Dependency on government managed charity needs to be broken. Is doing that in the middle of a major disaster the right thing to do? Of course not and it’s discussion isn’t appropriate right now either.
The role of FEMA, under Romney, will be redefined and reorganized. We all know this needs to happen, but it is a discussion for another time and place. Romney knows that and unlike 0bama, Romney is not going to use Executive Orders to create or uncreate anything without discussion with the people involved.

He could suggest FEMA first attend to cleaning up our media disaster.

Romney sure is out of line suggesting FEMA isn't efficiently run. Why, let's review some of the left's praise of FEMA efficiency:
- BBC - Fema 'knew of New Orleans danger'"But one of the most keenly felt criticisms of the response to Katrina is the charge that Fema failed to make good on its promises of immediate aid.
- USA Today - A big easy: Fix FEMA, embrace independent inquiry Dem hack Bob Beckel - "Before it was rolled into the new Department of Homeland Security, FEMA was an independent agency with a solid record in previous disasters. Then it got layered into a huge bureaucracy. How about making FEMA independent again?"
- CNN - Report: Criticism of FEMA's Katrina response deserved"It describes manpower problems, a decline in planning for natural disasters as attention focused on possible terrorist scenarios, and confusion over the roles and responsibilities of officials in responding to disasters."
- PBS - FEMA Faces Intense Scrutiny"Sens. Hilary Clinton, D-N.Y., and Barbara Mikulski, D-Md., said FEMA should be restored as an independent agency at the Cabinet level to remove one layer of bureaucracy."
- MSNBC - FEMA official: Higher-ups delayed Katrina aid "Before any disaster project even gets to the queue, FEMA field officials scrutinize it down to the smallest details, such as the number of pencils lost at a school. The findings then go to FEMA regional clearinghouses, where they are further examined. The process takes months, even more than a year, and generates mountains of paperwork in some cases, more than 1,000 pages per project."
Oh wait...

It’s sickening to see Obama preen around looking presidential and in charge. Romney is showing what a real leader looks like.

Bottom line is those who love FEMA live in the blue states hit by Sandy. They were going to vote for obama anyway. The rest of the people out here don’t like paying for the blue states’ misfortunes.
