By the way your forgetting fat ass christie and obama hugging after a hurricane

Glad you're surviving.

That was hurricane Sandy. Christie doesn't have a job because of that buddy hug.

Some Repubs in congress didn't want to fund Fema for Sandy mainly Ted Cruz. Now that a big storm has hit his state,
he's singing a different tune. POS

that is a misconception. He didn't mind funding sandy. He just hated that they included a lot of pork projects on bill. Not a cruz fan but what is fair is fair. I'm sure this bill will include some funding for alabama or some of those red states

That's what I read as well. Which makes sense BUT it's so hard to determine how much money is enough. The government sent more funds then what was needed after Katrina, they sent more money after Sandy as well. I personally think we should always send more money and I don't mind some of the pork because it will eventually get redistributed back into the economy anyway, so everyone wins. But you are dealing with so much politics that the lines get blurred.

Many Republicans at the time said they took issue with unrelated spending that was attached to the Sandy bill, though most of the funding was directed at helping the storm’s victims. And even some of the most derided provisions ― like $2 million to repair Smithsonian roofs in Washington ― were, in fact, related to that storm (it brought heavy wind and rain to that nation’s capital, as well.)
Overall, according to an analysis of the legislation compiled by CQ, the Sandy aid bill included $16 billion for community development programs, $11.5 billion for FEMA’s disaster relief fund, $10.9 billion for transportation system repairs, $5.4 billion for Army Corps of Engineers projects, $800 million for social service programs, and $826 million for repairs to national parks and facilities.
But Texas Republicans latched onto the notion that the Sandy relief package was full of wasteful spending. When the Senate was voting on the bill in early 2013, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) railed against the “unrelated spending, including projects such as Smithsonian repairs, upgrades to National Oceanic and Atmospheric airplanes, and more funding for Head Start.”
Again, the Smithsonian repairs ― representing 0.00004 percent of the money appropriated ― were related to Sandy, and the upgrades and repairs to NOAA aircraft were to help with future hurricane forecasting. The money for Head Start, meanwhile, was available only to those facilities damaged by Sandy.
On Monday, when Cruz was asked about voting against Sandy aid in 2013 but now openly seeking help for his state, he said there would be time for “political sniping” later.
“The problem with that particular bill,” Cruz said of the Sandy package on MSNBC, “is it became a $50 billion bill that was filled with unrelated pork. Two-thirds of that bill had nothing to do with Sandy, and what I said then and still believe now is that it’s not right for politicians to exploit a disaster and people hurting to pay for their own political wishlist.”
Cruz seems to be referring to the fact that only $17 billion of the package was for immediate relief and recovery needs, while other spending was for longer-term projects.

from "typical R" thread.

smart Chico, good job

Climate change couldn't possibly contribute to a climate event. But a former lesbian mayor might.

The logic of an imbecile.

Never.

They think antifa, or whatever the fck they call themselves are doing good work. Coulter is a moron. The left will never call out their morons. Obama supported so many violent groups, and individuals. One idiot conservative, and it's a story. I'm more worried about the people in this storm.

(referring to flood recovery)

Trump:This recovery "will be better than ever before".........

Every exaggerated sentence that comes from his own thought process and mouth
are narcissistic to record levels of blatant, uncontrollable, antisocial personality disorder symptoms
never seen in any sitting POTUS before this self proclaimed Chosen one of the world
now in reign .......
(in his own disturbed mind that is).
His, "I'm the smartest man in the world"comment will never be topped...............

What is scary as fukk though,he actually believes he is a better than
anybody on Earth including all the rulers of the dynasties before him........
Lol,I know,it's ludicrous, isn't it?.....

Everyone on the left thought Obama was the "so called" Chosen one as the "right
accused the left".....However Obama always kept his natural behavior
in check..
Now

Trump always believed he is the Chosen one...........
Add the POTUS to his mind and this is what you get....
His extreme, radical, selfish behavior is quickly building a wall
of isolation between himself and both sides of the aisle,
including his own administration..He thinks he's on his apprentice
TV show,,firing everybody until he has full control of nothingness..

Now we are going to go, back to REALITY......
How is a critically understaffed/divided administration, going to be
the "best ever" at anything?
