Hurricane Sandy victim Scott McGrath unloaded on President Obama and Washington elites in an interview with Neil Cavuto today on "Your World." Here are some great quotes from Scott McGrath. Full Transcript to follow McGrath: 'This country is in debt. We are so eager to help other countries that we forget our own people.' 'They have to change this and cut out the pork. We can't accept it if it's gonna put us in more debt down the road.' 'A quick fix is not gonna help us....in the long run I don't want to be paying more taxes down the road.' (Obama) 'is a phony, he's a liar. Straight out liar. He said to me face to face he's gonna cut the rep tape. We're two months now no red tapes been cut.' 'There's jobs out there. People have to get off their rear ends and find the jobs and stop taking hand outs.'

Some blogs cannot be mentioned on Jim Robinson’s Free Republic. I respect his limits. Some do not, but I do.
That doesn’t mean the information there on the unmentionable blogs isn’t accurate, because the blogs I go to aren’t gossipy.
The tip about Martial Law came from someone working in Law Enforcement in a deep South state. He, and others in Homeland Security, aren’t liking what they’re seeing from this administration.
I combined his interview with other information picked up from varying sources over the past two months, and the picture forming of this administrations plans is alarming.
You don’t like what I write, that’s your choice.
Back in 2008 I was warning folks about BHO2. Few heeded the information. Now, I can only hope people pay attention.
The 9 billion that 67 conservatives voted against was to give the authorization to borrow to allow FEMA to pay the benefits to those who had federal flood policies. It is also a fact that those representatives present in ‘05 voted to assist the Gulf states after Katrina. But I guess since they’re from NY or NJ it’s acceptable to label these victims as moochers and freeloaders. They are not the rugged Amricans who inhabit flyover country. Butyou might investigate the work of the Catholic Charities, Salvation Army and hundreds of other private groups and 10,000s of individals who’ve worked constantly to alleviate the suffering. Even the rugged individualists here would have to admit that those marxist NYers and Jerseyans did quite a lot for each other.
I can't imagine how frustrating and sad it must be for those people who were victims of Sandy, but the problem is, as you state FEMA has to "BORROW" the money to pay promises the Gov't made when the Gov't didn't have the $$$ in the first place to make those promises. You see, the gov't FORCE private insurance companies to back their claims not only 100% but 300%, however the gov't does not have to adhere to their own asinine rules they require private insurers, which is ludicrous!
Vermont had a little hurricane up here a year ago named Irene which wiped out homes and half the Rural Route roads in the state and people are still bitching about not getting gov't assistance to rebuild. This was over a year ago, where's Vt's baby mama?
holy cow!!!!!!!!!! great video
The bill that 67 conservatives voted against included FEMA money for all disasters last year - not just you folks in NY. No problem with that. The problem was the bill was loaded with pork and paybacks to special interests e.g., millions to fix uninsured losses, cars for homeland security, 150 million for the fishing industry, and even money to put a new roof on the Smithsonian.
You may want to believe they voted against the bill to make New Yorkers suffer but that’s not the case. The bill was an attempt to funnel money to special interests under the guise of disaster aid to those with federal flood insurance.
The president got 63% of the vote in NY and 58% in NJ. I doubt seriously they’re that upset with him. With all due respect to the victims of Sandy, I’m so damn sick of know-it-all libs from debt-ridden, leftist destroyed, economic craphole northeastern states like NY and NJ. Long before Sandy these people created an economic hurricane by adhering to a liberal ideology and continuing to elect one tax and spend buffoon after another to elected office. The next time I hear another whiny New Yorker spout about how conservatism is bad for the country I’ll remember the real ignoramuses in this country reside in cities like New York City, Albany, Trenton, and Jersey City.
