I demand to know why the Obama Admin has failed these people

Why is he allowing these people to die! Where the hell is FEMA! Where is the rescue? Smells like New Orleans. Someone please tell me why Obama has failed these people? Is it because they are not the right color?[/sarc]

National death toll hits 55 in ice storm, 24 in KY

http://www.kypost.com/news/national/...2O7V4lHDg.cspx

It's a damm conspiracy I tell ya! And not a word from Obama.

He has been pretty busy you know Merc.

Besides, what would you have him do? Become an electrician and fix the wiring? These things take time.

When we had those terrible storms in Bris a few months back, some people were without power for weeks.

The heatwave has caused many deaths down south in the elderly. What should the PM do? Go put aircon in for the oldies?

Some things just have to go through the process.

I think it is because they are poor white people that Obama does not want to rescue them.

Just calling it like it was when people accused the gobberrment of racism. I don't buy it for one minute.

But I would love to see NO and the 9th Ward turned into the next Disney Land.

Why would they build a tourist attraction there when it's just going to get flooded again?
