-—Not trying to be snarky or bitchy, but who cares! Obama going now is just a political stunt and not because he’s trying to help anyone but Hillary and the MSM narrative

Haven’t they suffered enough already?

Great response. And one that Professor Geoffrey Loftus would have highly approved of... LOL!

President Obama plans trip to Louisiana next week

BY ELIZABETH CRISP | ecrisp@theadvocate.com Published Aug 19, 2016 at 2:45 pm | Updated Aug 19, 2016 at 3:01 pm (8)

President Barack Obama is scheduled to travel to Baton Rouge on Tuesday to view damage from flooding that has left 13 people dead and thousands more displaced from their homes.

“The President is mindful of the impact that his travel has on first responders and wants to ensure that his presence does not interfere with ongoing recovery efforts,” the White House said in announcing the trip. “He is also eager to get a first-hand look at the impact of the devastating floods, hear from more officials about the response, including how the federal government can assist and tell the people of Louisiana that the American people will be with them as they rebuild their community and come back stronger than ever.”

Obama has come under fire in recent days for not visiting flood-ravaged Louisiana. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump visited on Friday.

Gov. John Bel Edwards, a Democrat has defended Obama’s delay, saying it would be a drain on resources needed in the response and recovery period.

“I would just as soon he wait a week or two,” Edwards said on Thursday.

The king visits the peasants. The King of America takes time off from his vacation to take a look at the people that he scorns: poor Whites.
The media will say that Trump is getting a photo op, and that bammy is being presidential. Meanwhile, Her Royal Hipness looks towards Louisiana with a sneer, and takes time off from changing her depends to mumble something to show she “cares”.

Bush was unfairly branded as a racist over Katrina. I will never forgive the left for that.

Right after Hillary said that political visits were a distraction and counter-productive.

Good call, Hillary!
