Christie is a very good politician. He started campaining for President as the Hurricane hit. Obama couldnt wait to get here for the photo op. Bloomburg is running a marathon on Sunday while hundreds of thousands in his city are without power and food. The idea that they should get any credit is way premature as things can get very dicey especially since it is getting cold at night and there are a few million people w/o power. |

what more would you like them to do.
its not like you can snap your fingers and have the whole mess fixed. the national guard is doing what they can, the funds were appropriated almost immediately. come on now. a LOT more deaths could have occurred here. I mean, look at this devistation. a lot more.

The correct response would have been "I have been in contact with the President and the Fed Gov't is committed to helping us in anyway that they can." Cristie has gone out of his way to praise Obama in a very public manner, on virtually every occasion that he gets his mug on TV. We are about to get an Obama/Cristie press conference on tv. Of course the people who need the help wont be able to see it. |

This is a huge tragedy/disaster, and yeah, so far so good. Proud of Christie and the other govs for being proactive. Nobody is saying there are not people without water, food, etc.today - but they are just wrapping up search and rescue.

Pretty outstanding response. You and Hooves can keep dissing it, and politicizing it with your typical targets of dislike and pettiness, but that seems pretty wrong and unfair. You guys go ahead and bitch and moan without me. It's completely absurd. I'll wait until tomorrow, when you two are angry that the subways are not drained and all the power isn't back on yet. Good grief.

Romney donated a million to the Red Cross today!
Obama got a free sandwich from the Red Cross and said it was great. Total loss at $50 Billion is nothing. The U.S. taxpayer is down that just with the GM stock we're still waiting to go up. |
