US President Barack Obama has declared a slow-moving lava flow from the Pu'u O'o vent of the Kilauea volcano in Hawaii to be a major disaster, the White House said.

The declaration frees up federal money to help protect local communities from the lava flow, which began moving toward homes on the big island of Hawaii on June 27 and is threatening Pahoa village.

If one’s property has been inundated, does one then own that parcel on the new flow?

Remember when half of Texas was burning and there was no response from the Obama?

Sorry about the extraneous “the”, it was originally going to be “the president” and I thought better of calling him that; I guess I didn’t catch the extra word when changing the text.

Pay offs to his homies to keep the BC hidden.

If you buy a house next to a volcano, isn’t that like buying on the bank of the Mississippi River? You know the risk, you take the penalty.

Of course he wouldn’t spend a dime on the wildfires in Texas a couple of years ago.

The next time Dear Leader visits Hawaii, he should go to the Big Island and to the Pu’u O’o vent of the Kilauea volcano. He can then command Pele, the volcano goddess, to stop the lava flow. At that point, Pele will bury him under 100 tons of liquid rock.

Yep, anything can be done by issuing an order.
