The fallacy that a man or FEMA can simply make things better quickly. Not happening and those in the middle of it will let the media know it. Each day that goes by, the good will drops.

The Obama team should have been suspicious when Christie rolled out the red carpet.

He was playing chess while they were playing checkers.

That may be the price of thinking you can play president for a couple of days and then get back to campaigning.

Being president is hard and doesn’t always work the way greek columns do.

I guess those EBT’s, Debit Cards, and cash aren’t being handed out fast enough (or, more likely, they only are handing them out in Da ‘Hood).

I heard on the radio yesterday that when Christie and Oblunder were touring the damage of the New Jersy shore line by helicopter, that one word was spelled out in the sand... ROMNEY

I was driving home and almost wrecked my truck from laughing so hard!

“Ask ‘em when they’re running out. Ask ‘em when there’s no heat in their homes and they’re cold. Ask ‘em when their engines stop. Ask ‘em when people who have never known hunger start going hungry. You wanna know something? They won’t want us to ask ‘em. They’ll just want us to get it for ‘em! “

Never take over the wheel of a disaster...

Obama needed a hail mary, and this was his only chance he figured. It was a risky move, that probably wasn’t going to work, but what the hey...

Or, maybe he’s just a total idiot? Yeah, probably the latter...

Media talking about people eating out of dumpsters, no electricity, gas shortages.

Bush's fault.

Maybe those celebrities who left lower Manhattan for upper Manhattan could contribute a bit of their mega bucks to help the unfortunate.

geez i am losing sympathy day by day for many of these people. i’m in colorado in a house so yes i have more space to store stuff and i have stores within walking distance and cash on hand (and the means to protect it). it’s been 5 days and they are running out of food? they are cold? don’t they have blankets? with very little perperation a week in late october without electricity and heat and gas would be merely an annoyance. hell i would use my cars more to keep cell phones charged.

maybe i’m just too old to care any more what people think of me.

Notice that we are having a parallel experience collapsed into a small time frame? On Sept. 11 there was Benghazi, a terrorist attack, and now this “version” of Katrina. It is like a gigantic cosmic theatre is showing us a comparison. The warm up was when BOTH political conventions had to work around bizarre weather.

Yup. That is exacty what the big man was doing. He was laughing his ass off because he knew it will be a month at least before things wil return to normal.There will be massive food and fuel shortages in the meantime. It’s already getting ugly here and Christie will simply ay-Obama broke his promise.Lookfor that around Monday
