FORE: OBAMA HITS IT OUT OF BOUNDS IN LA FLOOD RESPONSE
Canada Free Press ^ | 08/20/16 | Jeff Crouere

Posted on 08/20/2016 8:02:53 AM PDT by Sean_Anthony

Who knows the real motivation for his inattention to Louisiana, but at least we do know some good news, Obama leaves office in five months

The Great Flood of 2016 has devastated 40,000 homes across the state of Louisiana. Sadly, 13 people have lost their lives in this historic storm, which produced up to 31 inches of rainfall in some areas over the course of four days. This is more rainfall than the City of Los Angeles experiences in four years. It was a storm that was so intense that it only happens once every one thousand years.

Emergency officials claim that the Great Flood of 2016 is the worst natural disaster in this country since Hurricane Sandy in 2012. After that storm, President Obama famously met with New Jersey Governor Chris Christie to show support for the region.

Real motivation? It’s a Southern state where people “cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”

The Ministry of Propaganda will never hang this around Obama’s neck like they did Katrina with Bush.

Historians will look back at the period from 2008-2016 can call it the "lost years." An 8 year period where the US was rudderless, with a stagnent economy and the country sliding backwards.

It will end up taking the US 24 years, starting with the election of Donald Trump, for the US to return to the level of prosperity that was enjoyed prior to 2008.

Don’t forget that the Cajun Navy stepped up before FEMA to help.

Who knows the real motivation for his inattention to Louisiana,

Katrina most visibly hit New Orleans, a democratic cesspool.

This storm flooded predominantly Republican areas, so Obama doesn't care.

"...It will end up taking the US 24 years...for the US to return to the level of prosperity that was enjoyed prior to 2008."

It will take Trump 24 DAYS to turn the entire economy around, and in 24 months we'll be more productive, secure and prosperous than at any time in our Nation's legendary history.

This guy is a builder, not a politician. And he's one of the great all-time leaders.
