NOAA to East: Beware of coming 'Frankenstorm

[lustindarkness]

Yeah, all of this federal, state and local emergency organization is just ludicrous, people should learn to stand on their own two feet and fight off bad weather themselves; sink or swim?

Nothing encourages personal responsibility like having to deal with a natural disaster about by oneself.  REAL AMERICANS LOOT AND FORAGE

But wait til President Romney disbands FEMA, and PLJ has to deal with Florida EMA by himself in Jacksonville, the world's largest trailer park.  On the flip side, he can afford its privatization when he gets the bill from KBR to rebuild his shit.

I think I heard he already flip flopped on that and stated FEMA is safe from his cuts?

Of course he has! Well, why wouldn't he? So, tell me again how he's going to balance the budget? Where are the cuts going to be if not FEMA, Medicaid/Medicare, or military? Does he really think that Big Bird can pay it all??

Of course he has.  He's Mittens.

Big Bird is pretty big you now.

Christie said in an interview, when asked if Romney would be coming to visit NJ: "If you think I give a damn about presidential politics right now, then you don't know me."

I love my fellow Blue Hen alum & all, but I'd bet he said that to score political points for himself

Everything is political when politicians are involved.

Of course he did! I just thought it was hilarious.

[DGuller]

Meh.  I've past my overload point on Christie.  At this point, his "tough talk" is a transparent circus act, and as such, it doesn't quite have the same effect.

[derspiess]

Of course he did! I just thought it was hilarious.

The fat guvnah does entertain

[DGuller]

More excitement around here.  My uncle almost drowned in the basement while it was flooded, and had to swim to safety.    I think it's safe to declare the shit truly serious at this point.

[Grey Fox]

Next time, they'll evacuate then?

[DGuller]

Next time, they'll evacuate then?

AFAIK, they weren't in the evacuation area.

[DGuller]

Actually, he may have been right on the border of Zone A, I forget exactly where he lives.  In any case, he was very busy taking care of all the arrangements for us during the time he was supposed to evacuate, and couldn't evacuate even if he wanted to.

My uncle's primary house on LBI wasn't destroyed.   A neighbor who stupidly stayed behind checked on it and there was only a little bit of water in the garage.
