Default Tornado Warnings

Went thru a tough night with 3 separated warnings coming about an hour apart. The coolest thing was on 2 occasions my IPhone went off with an alert I've never heard demanding I take shelter NOW! Didn't heed the sirens but for some reason didn't question my phone and huddled downstairs with today's DRF on my tablet.

Turns out I don't need tree service this year as the tornados didn't touch down here but took care of the dead branches/trees. Beautiful morning to do some clean-up.

Always Staying Positive!

Suprised to see the lack of empathy for one of the most empathetic positive posters on DT. I'll be the first. Glad you came out unscathed.

Did my post sound like I was looking for empathy? Cause it wasn't meant to.

I'm in good hands which I pay dearly for.

Did Dell or any Republican on this board ever say that they were against FEMA and that it should be done away with? It is hilarious that you are trying so desperately to see if you can find any hypocrisy coming from Republicans. If you are looking for hypocrisy, you better look at the other party. I think there are plenty of things that a person can criticize the Republican party about, but hypocrisy would not be high on the list. The other party practically has a monopoly on hypocrisy.

I can't speak for Dell, but I personally am not in favor of ending all or most government programs. I don't know why you would think that most Republicans want to end all or most government programs. Do I think there is a lot of corruption, inefficiency, and waste in a lot of programs? The answer is yes. I would like to see a lot of the waste cut out of these programs. I would like to see plenty of reform. I think there are millions of people that take advantage of the system. But I am still not in favor of ending all these programs. I'm not in favor of letting people in this country starve to death. I think there needs to be some type of safety net there to help the most vulnerable people.
