A female Democratic Governor takes a chance to Bush-bash to cover for her own incompetence following a natural disaster.

Where have I seen this before?

She said the state has a shortage of heavy equipment transport trailers, pallet-sized loading systems, Humvees, dump trucks and other large equipment that would be help move massive amount of debris.

....And just who is head of the state of Kansas?...........

Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius said Sunday evening that the state’s response will likely be hamperedbecause much of the equipment usually positioned around the state to respond to emergencies — including tents, trucks and semitrailers — is now in Iraq.

It hasn't even happened yet and already it's a problem. Give it up already, lady. Sheesh.

Kansas—I know you’re a red state. Get rid of this useless piece of trash next time around, won’t you?

Prayers up for the people of Greenburg.

Tornados in Kansas? When was the last time that happened? You can't expect the state and local governments to be prepared for very rare events.

I don’t think that even Blanco and Negan (sp?) blamed President Bush in the first 48 hours.

Nobody can waive a magic wand after an F5 tornado and everything instantly be clean and new again regardless of a state of war or not.

Her efforts to politicize a natural disaster are shameful. But since she’s a Democrat I guess she has no shame.

“We are never at 100 percent because we are allocated a certain amount from the National Guard Bureau. With the war, we are much shorter than we would be. We have about 40 percent of what is allocated,” Watson said.

Kansas Politics Ping

How does a Democrat win a governorship in Kansas anyway?

Ping. Your first-hand commentary is needed here, please.

Sebelius’s voice sounds like Hillary too.

If only Karl Rove had pointed his weather machine in a different direction.

I was born and raised in Kansas, and the good citizens of Kansas will not appreciate the Governor’s political bent during this time. Even Senator Pat Roberts was acting like an idiot, saying this wouldn’t be a Katrina. I wish these people could turn off the politics and just be human.

I’m sure the president’s stand on Kyoto caused that tornado, too.

Ok, Bush's fault, slow government response, if we weren't in Iraq we'd have more resources to use here at home, call out the National Guard, looters, line up at the starting line, Bush hates black people, call for [Current target's name here] to resign, three million congressional investigations to prove it's Bush's fault and that [Current target's name here] must resign, impeach Bush yeada yada yada yada.

What happened in Kansas is tragic. This country does not need petty politicians turning tragidy into comedy like they did with New Orleans

It is the first F-5 since the weather service revised its scale this year, in an effort to more comprehensively gauge tornadoes’ damage potential, with less emphasis on wind speed.

I guess since they are now lowering the bar, we are going to now have a lot more F5 tornados. And the Dims can blame it on global warming and/or Bush.

As a former Kansan, I have a lot of friends there and not a one of them likes this POS they have for a governor. Of course, they are all conservative.
