He must be wondering what it would have been like if his buddy Romney - who wants FEMA disbanded so the states can do the job - had been in office.

Meanwhile... Romney is apparently pissed.

Fuck him.
I am loving this shit right now. I just hope Obama doesn't have another gaff like the first debate. He is playing this perfectly, on top of simply doing the right thing.
I honestly believe that there really are points in human history that trancend all labels. It is why when an earthquake happens in China or in Iran we still send rescue workers.
It just sucks that humans have no pragmatic mass of conflict resolution when it comes to non disaster issues. Humans stupidy fight over the stupid crap but can never focus on the times when we do see our common humanity.
War wouldn't exist at all if every country on every day suffered a Sandy. It bothers the shit out of me that humans cant see that when a hurricane hits, or an earthquake hits, that event doesn't give a shit about our politics or boarders and we all suffer the same when those things happen.
