"Sandy? Not for us.
Screw the crackers. Today, WE seek fresh Dominican hookers."

It's just too tempting to compare the media response to government relief efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and the response to Sandy. The dichotomy is stark.
ABC News:
*****
The residents of Staten Island are pleading for help from elected officials, begging for gasoline, food and clothing three days after Sandy slammed the New York City borough.
"We're going to die! We're going to freeze! We got 90-year-old people!" Donna Solli told visiting officials. "You don't understand. You gotta get your trucks down here on the corner now. It's been three days!"
Staten Island was one of the hardest-hit communities in New York City. More than 80,000 residents are still without power. Many are homeless, and at least 19 people died on Staten Island because of the storm.
*****
Three days after Katrina, New Orleans Mayor Nagin was on the radio, literally weeping about the lack of federal response to the desperation of the city:
*****
"You know the reason why the looters got out of control?" Nagin said. "We have most of our resources saving people. They were stuck in attics, man, old ladies. You pull off the doggone ventilator and look down and they're standing there in water up to their fricking neck."
"I need reinforcements," he said. "I need troops, man. I need 500 buses."
The relief efforts made so far had been "pathetically insufficient," Nagin said.
"They are thinking small, man, and this is a major, MAJOR deal," Nagin said. "God is looking down on this and if they are not doing everything in their power to save people, they are going to pay the price. Every day that we delay, people are dying, and they're dying by the hundreds, I am willing to bet you."

BARACK OBAMA DOESN’T LIKE WHITE PEOPLE.
My suggestion is for all the Staten Islanders is to scoop up all the poop and use it to pelt the Marathon Runners.
What a sight that would be.
But yet Louisiana’s governor said no to federal help for days. And the idiot mayor wanted Greyhound buses; school buses were not good enough?

Years ago there was secessionist movement where Staten Island wanted to become part of NJ; now I know why.
