As time goes on and more and more tempers rise, Obama will feel the heat. As unfortunate as it was for the hurricane to hit, the timing could be helpful to Romney.
Correction: they never said Bush let it happen. They said he made it happen. They said he made it happen because he hates black people. Well, Barry’s about to find out that the truth is no one has figured out how to deliver rapid relief on a large scale to a densely populated are where the infrastructure has been devastated. They just don’t know how to get aid inside the affected area. Look at Haiti, look at Japan. This is going to end up hurting Obama’s image.
Maybe they should just call Andrea Mitchell for help, she’s the one who said Mitt Romney’s food donations just aren’t needed or helpful.
Preppers’ PING!!
***** “Oh, yeah....easy for you to say. Buckets probably grow on trees where you live.” *****
Well if they don’t have a bucket they can just grab a couple of those 32 oz drink cups and pack water that way... oh wait, I forgot
Nevermind
TT
Finally, a comment that isn't rushing to judgement of these people. How hard can it be to have a little compassion? Not everyone is blessed with the intelligence or physical abilities to cope.
“And yet Obama Christie and bloomie are taking victory laps all over the place.”
Perhaps they could petition Daddy Bloomberg to lend them some buckets. Of course they wouldn’t more than 16oz. /s
Let me tell you something about New Yorkers, nephew. They’re a wonderful, friendly people as long as their bellies are full and their home theaters are working... but take away their creature comforts deprive them of food, sleep, hot showers... put their lives in jeopardy over an extended period of time and those same, friendly, intelligent, wonderful people will become as nasty and as violent as the most bloodthirsty muslim. You don’t believe me? Look at those faces. Look in their eyes.
“where human waste is spilling out of the toilet”
Seriously? They can’t think past going to the edge of an island and doing their business??
We have the “WOLF PACKS” and their tweets of the crimes that they are committing. We have long gas lines and traffic jams. We have stores with bare shelves and no way to restock them... prices are soaring. It is going to get much worse before it gets better.
They are already blaming obama in some places... the words most heard... “he promised... where is the government help”? Wait until they find out that beyond the $200.00 the Red Cross will give them... and water and MRE's... it will take weeks for FEMA to start trucking out debris from neighborhoods and when they find out FEMA's financial help is going to be SBA loan applications... well things are going to go from bad to worse and it will be a long time before it gets better.
obama will suffer from now until the election... he stepped up onto the stage and accepted 100% responsibility for this disaster and he has no concept of the job it is going to be to undo the damage... he has nothing to offer but words and they do not quinch thirst, feed the hungry or warm the cold... and they do not supply security... and security will continue to deteriorate until Martial Law is instituted... and it will be if things follow their natural course.

Smart ones live either up river or the higher floor.
Sad how thin society's division of labor veneer is. So many people count on the electrician, the mechanic, the plumber, the carpenter, etc.
If only the toilet is full in this case, then the main sewers are not backed up (they just had one helluva rinse, actually!) Most likely the water supply is down due to power, and these people have no idea how a toilet works and would be amazed to see what happens if you pour a bucket of water in it!!! Or grab a shovel and go outside idiot!
These events tell me when the SHTF I won't have to work very hard to stay ahead of the 47%.
There is no electricity to power pumping stations so the pipes fill up and then bathtubs and shower fill with sewage.

Ok, this was a hurricane (which they had plenty of warning about) and they STILL were 1)unwilling/unable to evacuate; 2)not prepared with any stores of water, food, generator, flashlights, etc.; 3)expect the government to help????
Guess I’m jaded after too many years of living on the Gulf Coast and ALWAYS having stuff ready to go for a hurricane and not expecting ANYONE to come help for at least a week.
What will these people do when the financial fiasco comes and our government can’t lie anymore about how badly off our country really is? So glad I live in the rural part of the South now and would not want to be in a big city. At least when TSHTF my family and I can take care of ourselves for a while. These city dwellers are in a “mell of a hess!”
City folk...!
You’re exactly right. Martial Law can’t be far away. Since Katrina I’ve heard it said thousands of times to be prepared to last 3 days because it’ll take that long for FEMA help to arrive. But, most of these people were probably watching “Dancing With Tom Delay” and didn’t see the warnings.
When Ike hit, we had plenty of food and water. We had no electricity for 8 days. And we were the lucky ones.
It is definitely going to get worse. I hope those who prepared also have plenty of ammo because the “zombies” are coming!
I live here and am still wo power and the idiots are popping champagne bottles to each other.

I’m betting most of these people would benefit from missing a few meals.
