I posted this yesterday on another thread:
“I have two sons pulling up to 22 hour shifts, one guarding downed power lines in Monmouth County, the other trying to get the phone system up at the Seaside Heights police station. One got his home’s power restored yesterday in Toms River, and one is still without power in Lakehurst.
They have put up with no heat, no gasoline, no showers—yet they get up each morning to do their best in the face of utter devastation.
We live in southern DE, and we got through Sandy with very few problems.
This afternoon we were in Dover, DE, and saw a fifteen truck convoy from Chain Electric from somewhere in Mississippi heading north
Well,I lost it, knowing they were on the way to help my sons and so many others in NY and Nj who need them so much. God bless them for coming to help, it was like watching the Cavalry come to the rescue.
Even the Mafia and the unions know better than to piss off millions of Jerseyans.
When I heard about this story this morning, I emailed Gov. Christie, sent the article to Fox and Friends, called .congressman ,Chris Smith’s office, called Senator Frank Lautenburg’s office and even called Sen. Jeff Sessions of AL’s office to investigate this.
NJ needs all the help they can get, and let me tell you, they are grateful,for all of it.”
The union goombas aren’t ‘fessing up, but they got caught.
And Christie will have none of it.
thank you my friend. my feelings exactly.

(Great post in its entirety, not just the part I excerpted.)
Sounds like you have two fine sons.

Ain't that the truth! =o)
If the power is still out in Lakehurst it includes the NAVAIR base. I suppose they're out helping with relief and restoration efforts anyway.
I work with quite a few Liberals. I mentioned yesterday to the one Liberal that NJ refused help from non-Union workers. Her husband is a Union worker(music industry) and she said “Well good for them, that is their right”. I said to her, are you serious? People are cold, hungry, homeless, without power, lost their homes and NJ should refuse help from folks just because they are non-Union? She quickly changed the subject. You know the usual side-stepping. Liberals are all for helping people unless of course it interferes with their paychecks.
