Remember Hurricane Katrina and the Bush disaster that was created when his FEMA organization sat back and watch people suffer while others died? Well that was a complete failure in leadership, starting at the FEMA level and moving all the way up to President Bush himself.
“This is not a FEMA operation. I haven’t seen a single FEMA guy”, said New Orleans’s emergency operations chief Terry Ebbert. “FEMA has been here three days, yet there is no command and control. We can send massive amounts of aid to tsunami victims, but we can’t bail out the city of New Orleans.”
Contrast that to the new head of FEMA, W. Craig Fugate and his boss, President Obama. Before Hurricane Irene touched land in North Carolina, President Obama cancelled the last day of his vacation and headed back to Washington. The President and Mr. Fugate spoke with the various govornors along the states in Irene’s way, and already began placing FEMA relief efforts in place.
The video below prompted the following twitter comment, comparing the two Presidents response to these disasters. This comment was retweeted multiple times, as other twitter users agreed with what was said;
See the video of a true Commander in action.
COME ON, ARE YOU SERIOUS… THE ENTIRE WHITE HOUSE HAS BEEN SAYING OBAMA NEEDS A GOOD CRISIS TO BE VOTED BACK A 2ND TIME. Hurricane Irene was even predicted to be a CATEGORY ONE rainstorm. It was an AVERAGE RAINSTORM that was milked by the media! Sorry but people aren't as dumb as you think they are. Hurricane was WAY OVERBLOWN as a publicity stunt to put more military on the streets, make FEMA look like good people who don't have jail camps, increase store sales, practice mandatory evacuations on citizens who aren't smart, & to scare the American citizens as 911 comes back around. VOTE RON PAUL 2012! HE BELIEVES THE GOVERNMENT SHOULDN'T BE OUR MOMMY& DADDY! He believes we should take care of ourselves & help each other out in times of need. Instead of running to this corrupt government with our hands out.
We know about you phony globalists, we know about your evil bloodline, we know about your plan to make us debt slaves, we know about your plan to use Racism as a weapon, & we are SICK OF YOU ALL! VOTE RON PAUL 2012!
