Yes, Mississippi got NOTHING after being hit in 2010 by a hard-hitting tornado-Yazoo County. Governor Haley Barbour had it all under control, but the Great Ob did not help with Fed funds. That even after other Liberal states were getting lots of assistance. The difference was stark.

When tragedies like this are happening to bring up politics is what the left does. They’re bring out dead children for God’s sake. Try to stay classy FR.

With new advancements in construction materials and hydraulic cement to make things water-proof, I can’t help but wonder if we need more development in this area...especially after losing these children.

Why can’t there be ‘tornado days’ where there is no school (like a snow day?). They knew there were going to be more tornadoes today in the area. Prayers for all the families...

In Oklahoma? If they did that they would miss half their school days in April and May. Simply not practical - days with forecasts like today, 99.9% of the time, the school won't get hit. And usually schools are safer places than homes for kids to shelter.

Rescuer said they had to pull a car off a teacher. Under her were three children she was shielding from the storm.

I don’t want to sound mean but if the forecast predicted severe storm was heading there why send your children to school. Also don’t school’s have a underground deep shelter to have the children run to for protection from tornado? I mean how many times must this happen before they build better schools with deep underground shelters?

More tornado warnings still out there...severe threat from N.Texas to Michigan.

O.U Medical Center..Oklahoma. has over 85 patients...65 are children. Expecting and bracing for more.

Drowned? I’m sorry, but I don’t understand. Was there that much rain?

This is what I'm wondering. I've heard this numerous times now, but not a single so-called journalist has thought to explain how the heck you drown in an elementary school. Not ONE.

15 mins is plenty of time for most schools. From what I heard on fox the plan at this school was to go to a central hallway. Thats how we did it a long time ago. In this case the hallway appears to have collapsed.

Damn Sen. Whitehouse to hell for his callous personal political use of a tragedy. The AP posted an article earlier today listing the casualty numbers by year since 1900 which puts the lie to his narcissistic rant.

I heard this is the 4th tornado to hit Moore in the last 15 years. Maybe they should look into some type of bunker system.

Run where? The tornado was at least a mile wide.

Message to Sheldon Whitehouse:

Sir, I don't know if you have a soul. I don't know if you have a brain.

What I do know Sheldon, is that you could at least wait until the children are memorialized and buried before spouting your global warming bs.

Sheldon, it seems your behavior has a pattern. You didn't wait until the children of Sandy Hook were buried either before trying to take our civil rights away.

Like your savior bho, you don't have to scratch deep to find the marxist.
