In an unbelievably classless move, Politco tweeted out the latest political cartoon from illustrator Matt Wuerker that actually mocked Texas victims of Hurricane Harvey, portraying them as Confederate sympathizers who want to secede from the United States.
In addition, the Politico cartoonist thought it appropriate to deride peoples faith as well, with a man dressed in a shirt with a Confederate flag being rescued from his rooftop and declaring: Angels! Sent by God! A Coast Guard pilot was shown correcting him: Er, actually Coast Guard...Sent by the government.

Selfish liberal priks like them have no compassion at all. Their hearts are as black as coal.
If anything, they are the ones doing the rescuing.
75% of Californian’s say it’s never going to happen. A small minority have a communist pipe dream here and that’s all it amounts to.
Because most of the reporters didn’t want to go down in the bad parts of town. The past 3 days, they’ve been in Katy, a suburb where the folks making three figures live. Before that, they were in Spring and The Woodlands. The Woodlands is ritzy-ritzy.
The cartoonist's point, beyond the obvious bigotry, was that not God, but the government, is there to save them, which is a lie. Other Americans are the rescuers. Some work for the government. Most are just neighbors. That's how it is in the real, non-politically-obsessed world.
This whole thing is certainly revealing with respect to the political class. We're seeing five-eyed, slithering, tentacled genetic mutants viewing Texas and laughing, "Wow, looka all the weirdos." It would be amusing if it weren't so insulting.
Well I hate it there, but I hate all big cities, especially since I don’t have a chauffeur. :-)
“Oh, and they have to build a WALL so in 10 years when their residents are trying to break into the United States they wont be able to get here...”
It wouldn’t take 10 years. About 1-2 years would wake up most people except the liberals who have destroyed their brain cells with drugs and alcohol.
I mostly saw Texans.
You know, it struck me watching the reports from Texas, how Texans take the bull by the horns and deal with what’s going on. Helping each other! Compare to Sandy, where the bitching and kavetching and whining the Feds didn’t help quick enough, is all one saw! Plus, the President didn’t meet the Governor of Texas at the beach for a big hug! God bless Texans!
You got that right.
“If California agrees to take ALL illegals and 10% of liberal elites, we should all back them in their move to become their own country.
Oh, and they have to build a WALL so in 10 years when their residents are trying to break into the United States they wont be able to get here...”
ESCAPE FROM LOS ANGELES comes to mind! Doubt there are many Snake Pliskin types still running around.
KYPD
A man and his family were standing on their roof during a massive flood. He turned to his wife and told her that the Lord was going to save them.
Shortly after that, a boat showed up, but the man refused the help and told the guy in the boat that the Lord was going to save them.
About twenty minutes later, a helicopter hovered above the house, but the man told the pilot the same thing.
The Lord was going to save them.
Eventually they all drowned. When they reached Heaven, the man asked why He didn't save them.
The Almighty replied "I sent a boat and a helicopter for you!"

Heck no, California is our state. The illegals, leftists and Communists should be deported to North Korea.
“Im not seeing a lot of Confederates being rescued.”
A lot of the people that came in with fishing boats, pontoon boats and whatever those boats are with the big FAN on the back, to rescue ANYONE IN NEED were Confederates.
Because they have a Confederate Flag on their boat and you’re up to you butt in snakes, alligators a dirty flood water, you’re gonna say, NO to a ride out?
ROFLMAO!
The Media is so spiteful and clueless.
That’s a Revolutionary War flag (the Gadsden flag)-not a confederate flag
