Irene may have been a tropical storm when it blew into Manhattan, but New Yorkers are going demand a Category 5 flood of fresh Federal money.

The ‘RATS are going to milk Irene for all it’s worth. The politicians need all of the “we care” camera face time they can get. Lighten up boys! It’s STILL the economy, stupid!

Everything the administration is doing these days seems to be on the defense and it’s not going to work. This FEMA headquarters bull is just another example.

He's delusional if he thinks he looks in charge of this tropical storm. This isn't Katrina by a long shot. Just a reminder what a cat 5 storm surge looks like.

I watched a few minutes of the “Hurricane Irene” (Da da daaaa) show on FOX this morning. I wonder what’s with all the sign language guys. Don’t ALL TVs have closed captioning these days? Some foghorn politician was blowing off when FNC covered up his sign language gal with the weather radar box. LOL! All you could see were her beady eyes and forehead. Weird.

He’s probably too busy snickering. One thing I noticed this go round, when it comes to hurricane prep advisories, nobody is more efficient than Jindal. He’s like an energizer bunny and a walking encyclopedia of everything rolled up in one.
