What camp are you in?
Also see the Heritage Foundation's 2010 report Federalizing Disasters Weakens FEMA--and Hurts Americans Hit by Catastrophes
Note how even a possible GOP Pres contender Christie was praising the FEMA today. What portents for future Federal overgrowth does this storm bring a'blowing in the wind?
We've seen the false Global Warming concept overwhelm weather science for years, and the cost to many who opposed it. What allowed that corruption to grow and fester was a creeping federalization of Science, the Profession.
The next time he ran, he did so as an Indie.
This third time, which he truly couldn't have done, due to term limits, he twisted arms and had the city council change/tweek the law.
He's NEVER governed as a GOPer; not even as a far lafty one! And nobody, not even the MSM calls him a GOPer, so your stupid, uneducated "theory"/assumptions are serious garbage.
thanks for those links. here’s one for Marylanders under BGE:

Even more scary is that someone is standing there with a camera...
God bless you and yours, Red. Report in when you
can, and stay safe and dry. Hugs .. ;)
Wow That’s where the water is a few hundred yards off the boardwalk normally, right?
Tornado’s all around us.Media says to go to basement.Ed and Mary are there.Our warning is done at 11.
Rain and winds starting to pick up here on Long Island. Saw lightening and heard thunder as well.
Have to go outside to smoke so I can keep everyone updated once an hour!
You are off topic. 2nd notice.
Wow.
Night all. Stay safe. Looks like we will in between bands on the radar here in Barnegat for awhile.
Anyone who trusts Snopes is not fully informed.
The MOST lib urban legends/hoax reporting site there is. I wouldn’t trust them for anything important.
I don’t know how deep the beach is by the boardwalk. Used to go to WW as a teen, but haven’t been there in decades. Maybe someone who knows WW will chime in.
ROFL!
They nail them shut or put in wood blocks to secure them. Good idea with the baggies but my freezer is so small and already filled...did do it with a few small Tupperwares. Just filled my tub and I’m sure it will have gone down by morning. :)
11 PM ET, 80 mph winds, Cat 1, 954 mb, moving NNE at 16 mph.
It’s not letting up.
Great predictions from the idiots again. Hershey was to get nothing. Still not mentioning on TV, it is going West a bit and that is a lot. Idiots, idiots.
Hey, keep flying them high.
Oh yes the arrogant Bloomberg is just too much to take. He always talks down to his peeps, it really is amazing to watch. He and Gov. Andy Coemo are milking this crisis like it is too good to waste.
As is my Gov.Malloy in CT.
I have seen a pattern with the Democrat Governor’s and mayor’s today. They all have the same lingo. Gov’t will save you. Such a shame.
Hi Patton,try twitter.((((Hugs))))
Under tornado watch here, boss.
Can I gets you some water, boss?
