I’ll start the drumbeat for Dear Leader.
If you dare complain about His Imperial Majesty not doing enough, you’re a racist. Without his intervention, the storm would still be destroying everything on the planet.
He raised his littlest finger and the Tempest immediately ceased, isn’t that enough for you haters?
>> New Yorkers, kiss it, you still voted for this turd. Repair your city by yourself
You don’t know what the # you’re talking about. Staten Island split the vote despite it being surrounded by historically and heavily Democrat boroughs.
New York will recover, like it did a decade ago. So you can keep your kisses to yourself.
When an honest taxpaying citizen tries to access any “government program” they are ALWAYS initially denied and/or referred to another government agency!
See the problem is, you have an established record of not contributing to public corruption, and not really needing corrupted government assistance.
So you are already, automatically pegged as a potential enemy/whisteblower to the government agencies you think your personal tax dollars supported.
Idiots! /sarcasm//
The Katrina victims who were subsidised HUD renters were instantly given several thousands of dollars each in instant emergency cash.
What help did their landlords get, the taxpaying property owners, who lost everything?
What immediate “government cash assistance” was given to the private property owners who paid their property taxes?
Think about it....
>> And they will continue to vote Democrat!
>> You can’t fix retarded.
Two more geniuses that don’t know jack. Try preaching that crap in Staten Island.
Staten Island, a borough of NYC, voted 49.6% for Romney. More so than any of the states below with only Florida coming close at 49.1%. Good chance SI would have gone red if it weren’t for Sandy and the Christie/Obama spectacle.

Correct me if I am wrong, but renters cannot get flood insurance, nor will renters insurance cover flooded personal possessions. Many apartments were flooded & uninhabitable. Upper level apartments are uninhabitable because electrical/plumbing systems need major work.
People have no place to live, no job, no possessions, no car, nothing. We, as a nation, have a responsibility to help these people restart their lives, including temporary shelter & assistance, as surely as we should help the sick & disabled.
I DO NOT support helping these people rebuild houses destroyed, only to have them destroyed in the next storm. The gov’t should buy these properties & leave them as open public areas. With such a policy, eventually there would be little need for flood insurance, & vast waterfront areas would be available for public recreation. If you think this is expensive, consider that many owners on the Gulf Coast have collected more in flood insurance claims than the properties are worth, not including the costs to restore roads, sewer, water, & power to these homes.
Yeah, FEMA sux, but so does every other Federal bureaucracy. I favor being rid of them all, but as we are paying for them, I expect SOMETHING for my money. I imagine the whiner has similar feelings.
They want to take back Obama’s Participation Trophy... too bad he has an iron grip on it!!
They are just going to have to bite the bullet and hire a couple of race hustlers like the Right Reverend Al Sharpton of the Church of Devision and Derision and the Not-So-Right Reverend Jesse Jackson of the Church of Race Bigotry to get their mob of professional protesters up to the White House and generate some support for those poh folks in NY. They may need to go to an abortion clinic to get some dead black babies to emphasize how FEMA and the Food Stamp President are killing poh black folks down at Staten Island. Probably want to get a few reporters from the MSM to witness the dead black babies, CNN or MSNBC are good choices as neither one is overly bright or competent. Remember people, it’s the image that counts!
I feel sorry for the media.
They want to show the suffering but they don’t want to show Obama’s ineptitude.
Good response. I hate it when people here start bashing New Yorkers.
Also, I’m from the worst part of NYC (Upper West Side) but there were many conservative people there. They got no media coverage and no voice, and of course since it was a foregone conclusion that everybody was going to vote Dem, we never even had any candidates. Literally. Most elections were uncontested.
But that doesn’t mean that there were no conservatives.
And in any case, why are FReepers exulting over the destruction of a part of the United States?
They chose the Democrat road to entitlement via welfare, food stamps and public housing overwhelmingly on November 6th. That Sandy accelerated the journey to where they sought to travel (Obamaland) is on their own backs. Media has totally dismissed their outrage and plight and photo-ops for politicians the media DOES cover have come and gone.

>> And in any case, why are FReepers exulting over the destruction of a part of the United States?
Ignorance I guess.
Well said. Too many FReeper “friends” want to stick
ALL New Yorkers and Californians in the libtard box.
We may be fighting a losing fight but we’re still
fighting.
I've lived in three of those 24 states and would not return to any of them. I now live in one of the red states and love it here.
Almost all my neighbors are Californians, but only a small percentage are conservatives.
Well, Mama, thanks for that but it might be more
instructive if you listed the area where you reside.
Seems most of those leaving California are conservatives.
Maybe, they just don’t seem conservative compared to
you. Arizona? Nevada? Oregon? Idaho?
