before it needs to ask for a supplemental.
I think it can be stretched quite a bit farther by not spending a nickel of Irene relief in Virginia.
Texas annually sucks up a huge amount of FEMA dough, doesn’t it? They rank #1 in federal disaster declarations all-time. Cut ’em!
How are things going for you?
Disaster relief to help Americans can wait.
There are regulations to gut, corporate taxes to cut, and spending to slash!
So, facing a national calamity is now a political tool to drag the government to the bathtub…
shameful.

Let’s hope so. And let’s hope they make it very clear why and how they are able to do this against the will of the meanies who never saw a perk, break or subsidy for the corporate elite they weren’t willing to go deep into debt for.
Hard to fit this we can’t afford to help people attitude into the kind of heartwarming, can do patriotic take they favor in the face of disasters, at least those that don’t disproportionately affect poor minorities. Anti-government echo chamber on the right has raised tone deafness to new level if they think this attitude is going to play in the heartland. Govs of states involved, including R Govs, are pretty happy with quality of fed government support and probably looking for as much quantity as they can get.

They have gone from railing against government that people don’t like or that costs a lot of money to railing against government that people do like that is central to the purpose of government.
Their ideology is bent on the destruction of modern society.
In that case, Fox is equally tone deaf. I really don’t think, with major weather disasters having recently taken place in every region across the US that they will be able to spin this the way they think they can to the general public.
Unlike Katrina, the disasters of the past year have impacted lots of Fox approved heartland and red state Republican white folks.
It’s a different world. No more blank checks.
You’ll get used to it and the American people prefer it.
Really, that is nuts. And, IF independent voters become informed of the true GOP agenda like this, the Dems will have a huge victory in 2012. IF is in capital letters only because the Dems have been so pathetic at getting this message out.
The ones who got smacked last, or the ones who are going to get smacked next?
I think you’d be hard put to find any Americans who wouldn’t want to jump in and help people in need.
But maybe I know different Americans than you. You seem to know the ones who say, “I’ve got mine, fuck everyone else.”
The Americans I know aren’t like that.
