FEMA says no to Virginia. The Federal Emergency Management Agency denies Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell's request for federal assistance with the tornado destruction.
(snip)
The storm facts for April show the state was slammed by more than two dozen tornadoes. Killing 10 people, four of those were in Glade Spring. 212 homes were destroyed statewide and more than 1,000 were damaged.

VIDEO taken of the damage at Exit 29 on I-81, near Glade Spring, Virginia.
I thought Obama wanted to carry Virginia next year..Guess not..
Texas and now Virginia. Two Pubbie governors. Hmmmmmm.
But Obama wants to give a billion dollars to Egypt, not to mention Pakistan.
Obama is waterboarding Virginia...reminding them of what happens when you vote for capitalism instead of Communism.
Why? Weren’t the minimum number of “our people” affected to meet current FEMA requirements?
Folks can draw their own conclusions.
If Tim “Rat Tooth” Kaine had been governor, wanna bet the money would have flowed like a broken dam?
Hoss
Texas and now Virginia. Two Pubbie governors. Hmmmmmm.

Two Southern, formerly Confederate states. States which largely lack what voodoo Republican Colin Powell called “urban values”.
Defund FEMA. When did disaster relief become a federal priority?
And there you have it. FEMA is nothing more than another Democrap slush fund.

Obama is a vindictive pr**k, and people have said that for some time. He is punishing Va, Texas, and other states that have not supported him nor kissed his a$$.
S-s-sorry. Didn’t mean to stutter.
Kanye West says this proves Noobama hates white people....... Oh wait, no he didn’t.
Apparently “Are you fighting Obamacare?” is one of the new qualifiers on the FEMA checklist...
Virginia Republican Governor “Bob” McDonnell...
And will Virginia Republicans stand up and TELL the people of the state the funds are NOT coming because they did NOT vote for Hussein??!! Probably not.
I think the Dems are building a meme here. They’re going to accuse GOPers who decry federal spending and power of wanting and expecting the feds to come to their rescue when they need it, but wanting to restrict or limit the feds from raising and spending money elsewhere.
The tornadoes weren’t in Northern Virginia, where those still sporting the Obama 08 stickers are located. For this administration, damage and disarray along the I-81 corridor is a positive.
Those who vote Democrat frequently cite their party as the one that cares for people. This is yet another example of why that is untrue.
