He will probably go down in history as the worst POTUS this nation has ever experienced. Carter must be breathing a sigh of relief over this.

C’mon, they’re white! I mean, it’s not like this happened in New Orleans or something. Can you imagine leaving black people without homes for five days?

Kanye West has joined as well:

Barack Obama doesn’t care about white people.

The left is just livid that Obama hasn’t stepped up to help these poor people.

Wonder how close those fires have come to Crawford.

Not very close. I live 30 miles northwest of Crawford and it is a couple hundred more miles northwest of here where the closest fire was.

If you had read the articles attached to your links, you would have seen that they undercut your argument.

Mommy was not home to read to her.

I’m sure if it was your state, you’d be screaming til the heavens heard you….but a Red state…God forbid. They don’t deserve any help because they’re *GASP* a red state.

That is exactly how the leftist mind works.

On Huffpo, they were talking about the tornadoes in Alabama. Many were saying they deserved it, because they weren’t working hard enough against global warming.

What was worse were the people who took issue with this: They stressed that this was a horrible way to look at it, because there were Democrats in those areas!

There was all kinds of chest-beating: “I’m a loyal and dedicated Democrat and I live in Alabama, do you want me to die, too?” and so forth.

The other is that America’s 2,000-mile Southwest border has never been safer.

Yup. Absolutely no IEDs found anywhere along the border. And no wide swaths of land declared no-go zones either. Nope. No gangs. No violence. Nope. Nada.

Unbelievable. Up is down. Black is white.

Surely no one is going to fall for this in El Paso?

You wouldn’t even know they occurred if you watched the news.

ButterflyDragon on May 10, 2011 at 3:12 PM

I hear about it on our local news in ND.
But then since we flood a lot & the MO is a tributary of the Mississippi, I guess maybe that’s why they report on it.

Mary in LA on May 10, 2011 at 2:54 PM

Oh no I wasn’t taking her to task for that post.
I was agreeing with her on the audacity of it.
And I forgot abt the gun thing.
That is a hoot how they can just conveniently forget about any of that.

He completely ignored the floods in Tennessee at the beginning of his presidency also. Why isn’t the press on this?

Cindy Munford on May 10, 2011 at 10:13 AM

He wasn’t the only one that ignored the floods. You wouldn’t even know they occurred if you watched the news.

That’s obvious BS on Obama’s part, given the whole “gun-walking” scandal.

Mary in LA on May 10, 2011 at 2:54 PM

FIFM.

catmman on May 10, 2011 at 2:10 PM

Thanks! Will do.

Badger, I think Susanboo forgot her /sarc tag… the tell is this: “America’s 2,000-mile Southwest border has never been safer.” That’s obvious BS given the whole “gun-walking” scandal.

One is that granting more immigrants citizenship would be good for the U.S. economy. The other is that America’s 2,000-mile Southwest border has never been safer, so the timing for immigration reform is excellent.

Obama can’t declare Texas a disaster area, he is busy solving the problem of illegal immigration, don’t you people know anything?

Susanboo on May 10, 2011 at 2:28 PM

If unemployment is so high, then how can that be good? They take away the jobs that Americans could be doing, & actually,a lot want to be doing.
There are more & more illegals here in ND, doing jobs Americans could be doing.
But of course, if you can make more, or the same, or even a little less moeny by sitting on your a$$ collecting ‘free’ benefits, then why bother getting a job?
So just bring in illegals!
And as far as safety, what a crock of crap!

Immigration is a complex topic, but President Obama will stress two simple themes today in El Paso. One is that granting more immigrants citizenship would be good for the U.S. economy. The other is that America’s 2,000-mile Southwest border has never been safer, so the timing for immigration reform is excellent.

Obama can’t declare Texas a disaster area, he is busy solving the problem of illegal immigration, don’t you people know anything?

Mary,

Google “Texas Wildfire donations”. You’ll get tons of hits. Just look around. There are funds for ranches, evacuees, all kinds of places so you could target your donation if you wanted.

Or check out the American Red Cross website.

California, on the other hand, was awarded a federal disaster declaration for its damage from the tsunami surge in March. Not to minimize the significance of the damage or anything, but what we’re talking about here is pier infrastructure and a whole lot of leisure marine craft. In Texas, Virginia, New Jersey, and Indiana the damage involved massive residential and business losses.

Now, we think Obama likes Mitch Daniels, so we certainly shouldn’t read partisan disfavoritism into this.

“To those Americans whose support I have yet to earn — I may not have won your vote, but I hear your voices, I need your help, and I will be your president, too.”

Texas, show him a big finger!

Governor Rick Perry tweeted it out last night with this message to his followers : “Welcome Obama to Texas. Up the pressure on denied disaster relief.”

hire some firefighters, idiot.

sesquipedalian on May 10, 2011 at 9:28

Shut up liberal idiot. Texans are taxpayers too. Federal Disaster money comes from taxes, so we have as much right to it as all the other 49 States. It’s not just the money, it’s also equipment and manpower from other States.

The ‘servants’ have gone rogue. Put the forks and pitches onto them, no less.
