Shocking HuffPo Headline: 'Anger Grows In Outer NY Boroughs, NJ Over Sluggish Response To Sandy'
NewsBusters ^

Posted on 11/02/2012 7:06:30 PM PDT by chessplayer

With just four days to go before the elections, and Obama's media doing everything within their power to ignore the subject of Benghazi, Libya, you would think they'd also be turning a blind eye to disaster relief problems in areas hardest hit by Hurricane Sandy.

That's why I was shocked to see this headline at the Huffington Post a few hours ago: "Anger Grows In Outer NY Boroughs, NJ Over Sluggish Response To Sandy."

As you can see, the top of the Post's front page listed article after article of bad news from the region.

Not what you would expect from a publication devoted to the re-election of Barack Obama.

Oh, who believes that people in NY can get pissed off over little things like this. Especially after King Barry went out of his way to do a photo op just for them.

Don't like it, but I've got to give Anderson Cooper on CNN credit. He's on right now and he's absolutley livid about the slow government response in Staten Island.

CNN earlier in the afternoon was leading with the poor response in NYC....I cannot watch Schlep Smith on FNC so the TV goes to CNN while he is on....and could not believe the CNN coverage...thought it was back on Fox. They are ripping the Fed, state, and local response

As far as I know, 0 has not repaired one downed power line here in NJ. He probably doesn’t know a thing about electricity, except perhaps that it runs Teleprompters®.

The state of our culture is shown by the news reports of mob behavior of people led by demagogues. Example: In Bridgeport, CT, a radical stronghold, the mayor claimed that the electric company was not serving them, and was giving preference to richer areas. People there may have believed this rabble-riousing, and when power crews showed up in some neighborhoods, the crews were attached by the feral inhabitants. How easily those louts revert when led by pandering, hate-mongering democrats!

The crews left, and are demanding police protection! This is incredible. If I ran those companies, I would refuse to hook up Bridgeport until every other area was served first, and then only with a National Guard escort.

Meanwhile, in NJ, unionized companies have turned away electric crews from out-of-state who refused to pay tribute (cash) to their union for the right to work here in the effort to restore our power.

So, our public is driven by mob instincts, and the public services are corrupted by thuggish unions. A fine condition we are in!

And our governor in NJ welcomed and praised our sorcerer-president, for doing essentially nothing.

I prefer Sandy (a good, honest disaster) to all these pretentious and phony do-gooders. Sandy will flood you, drop trees on your house, and give you a sample of what a “green” (energy-free) lifestyle is really like. But Sandy cannot corrupt our souls. Only forces of evil can do that, and in some areas, they are succeeding.

You have to wonder why Shep Smith did not find the time to find a strategic position on Staten Island to make a heart felt rant about Bambi and his administration causing death and destruction because of Bambi flying off to Vegas?

Have any leaders of the “white community” come out and said “Obama hates white people” yet?

Or was I thinking of something else?

Remember when he promised to re-build America’s infrastructure? How it was a number one priority? All the shovel ready jobs?

Cooper does a great job. Best and most honest reporter on CNN by a long shot.

Christie may be trying to engineer Romney's defeat in order to give himself a chance in 2016.
