Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius expressed concern Monday that rescue and recovery efforts after tornado-packed storms were being strained because much-needed equipment is in Iraq. Federal officials arrived Monday in Greensburg to survey the damage. The weekend storms killed 11 people in Kansas -- including nine in Greensburg

If your Equipment kit for recovery is in Iraq did you tell anybody before you allowed it to go?
That is rude.

There. Got to it before Kanye West did.
A Governor whining about their own management of resources. Not the best leadership trait, in case someone tries to call her a good leader.
I saw her saying this Saturday and Sunday and found it to be shocking. The left is bankrupt for ideas save one. Blame Bush for everything.
Despite comments like this, isn’t it Darfur they want the left wants Bush to send troops to? Why? To improve their lot in life? Why them and not the citizens of Iraq?
The left has driven off into a ditch.
Democrats continue to politicize disaster and death. They have politicized 9/11, Katrina, Iraq, Afghanistan, you name it if it happens in a state that is controlled by a Democrat that it is truly a disaster.. Notice how Katrine which hit Mississippi head on and destroyed it the Republican Governor got it together and made stuff happen.
Remind me again what the National Guard is for? Weekend duty is training for the real job of deploying to fight and win. Any other duties are ancillary benefits. Did she activate EMAC to get assistance from neighboring states?
“Democrats continue to politicize disaster and death.”
And sadly, they will continue to get away with until someone on our side calls them on it in a very public way.
Like the man they keep blaming... One day maybe he will see that the Rats need to be taken to the wood shed there is no other way but for him to get personal with them. They have been pummelling him for years.
Tornadoes come to Kansas with surprising regularity every Spring.
The Kansas Adjutant General regularly gives the governor staus reports on the state National Guard, of which she is the Commander in Chief.
Knowing that tornadoes come, and knowing the status of the Guard, why wasn’t she prepared for this obvious eventuality with backup plans?
Moron.
If George Bush hadn’t lied about WMD’s, we wouldn’t be in Iraq and all the money spent on the war could have been spent on global warming and then these tornados wouldn’t have been as bad.
No surprise here.
And how exactly will anyone on our side call them on it in a very public way?
Let’s just say Hillary or whatever other Rat wins next year. You can bet your bottom dollar that if a Katrina like disaster ( no I don’t want that to happen) happens on their watch like in the third year of their term and the response is bad, they’ll blame Bush. Plus the media scrutiny and uproar will be a heck of alot less.
Hmmm, Alabama has one of the largest Guard deployments in the nation. We’ve had several tornadoes this sprint (and last fall and last spring and—oh yeah there was Katrina and Ivan) and we’ve had plenty of resources to respond.
Could it be that our Governor is a REPUBLICAN who believes in being prepared?????
I got to tell you these Dem chickies are not making a good impression for women in leadership positions (and I’m a chickie myself)!
1) The President himself when being interviewed by the Drive Byes can set the record straight in a very forceful way and call a lie, a lie and then back it up with documentation.
2) The Republican congressional critters could do the same. They were way too soft with the corrupt Louisiana and New Orleans governments after Katrina. Their has too be documents and files of old investigations on how flood control money,etc. Instead they let the Bush team spin in the wind after Katrina. Not to mention the poor response of the Louisiana GOP congressional members to counter the criticism from Landreu, etc. It was pathetic beyond a doubt.
