If that storm had not hit and Obama lost that to me would still be a much better human way of looking at it. His boon from Christie's complement and rightfull governance of putting politics aside didn't matter to Obama and probably would be willing to lose if it ment the storm never happening in the first place.
I feel now that he has gone back in he is walking a very tight rope while trying to do the right thing. And he also has to win to to continue that help because Romney, with everything he has said puppeting the base which would leave those victims worse off, cant afford to lose.
So while Christiie did the right thing at the moment, it is hard for me not to believe that Romney will still politicize this. Tactically speaking I do see him desperate enough to do that.
It's still a real problem vs. created problems (ie. the abortion debate, program defunding, et al.) I like real problems with real solutions, not problems we bring up and create to avoid discussing the real problems (environmental issues, economic issues, et al.) facing our nation.
Yea, it sucks that our society focuses too much on the lives of others instead of problem solving that affects all of us. But I do think that if the frequence of stuff like this is on the uptic which it seems to be I think there will be an evolutionary force of reality that will force us to problem solve and skip social issues. But it reamins to be seen if power mongers can be put in their place long enough to start that process.
