    Let’s see, 3 months into the loss and they are just now voting on an aid package since FEMA has no money. In addition, the insurance industry has about $19Billion set aside for paying losses. It seems to me the red tape is just as long under this President as it has been in the past. I am not sure it took this long to get help for Katrina victims, yet the liberals were screaming and jumping up and down about it. I think the recently indicted Nagin squirreled away a lot of that money in New Orleans.

        I hear Twighlight Zone music a lot when I read Agent’s posts. Just have to consider the source, D.

          Considering the source of the reply to the source, you don’t have a leg to stand on.

          Agent is poor with his comments at times.

          Not as poor as you. Back up your statements for once rather than stating “oh it’s just obvious, Bush + Economy = messed up!”.

          Explain to me the direct laws Bush put into play which degraded the economy. Because boy howdy can I, and Have I, explained them to you.

          This is your brain on Rachel Maddow.

          By the way, Mr. “you’re a bully I don’t reply to you”

          Loved your this is your brain on Glen beck insult. Again labeling someone you don’t know, on something you have no evidence of whether or not they are watching, and moreover, not actually fact checking the info as opposed to labeling the source.

          Listen asshole, Glen Beck is NOT always wrong. He’s also NOT always right. I can say the same of Rachel Maddow. You can’t. Think it has something to do with your little liberal mental disorder?

    This bill is a disgrace – using the victims of Hurricane Sandy as the fulcrum for levering gross spending programs in the future. This pork laden disaster includes $28 Billion for FUTURE disaster mitigation! It includes money for HeadStart, fisheries in Alaska, cash for HHS, and $17 BILLION in Community Development Block Grant!
    Can anyone imagine a private family or business using reasons such as these to justfy going deeper into debt? No wonder we don’t trust these thieves: they violate our trust every day.

    The worst is yet to come. The real reason for the delay is that we really don’t have the money. It’s like promising to pay a medical bill you know you have to pay but putting off a little longer, until you can borrow the money or skip another bill to pay.

    Another disaster is on the way, it will be a bigger one yet.

    It’s going to break the bank.

    China is bracing for an invasion soon after it hits and they are angry. This is when it will be most chaotic but they are impatient and will themselves be lost in the chaos. Their own military will defect.

    There are people in our own gov’t that are going to assist with the communist take over attempt. Preventing our missles from being deployed.

    They will only bomb where necessary and where it is expendable (east coast). Hoards of violent gangs and militia’s will come up from the south and mass foreign troops from the north.

    They will fail but it will be a new beginning for a rebirth of a new nation.

    THE MIRACLE will unfold like this: The meek of all people and of all nationalities will come together, under the direction of Jesus. And with no effort end the attack. We will be given all of the technologies that have been withheld from us for malevolent reasons, and held in control by malevolent forces.

    It will be a devastating and chaotic global disaster but will bring about a new and long awaited beginning of GOD’s promise. He will bring Heavan to all the Earth, just as we’ve been asking and just as he said he will do and as it will be.

    Jesus is at the door now.

    Be prepared to choose Good from Evil.

    Keep it simple.. either way you will choose.

    The clowns in suits (politicians) are out of control and intoxicated on their own flatulence. Americans need to unite and vote them out. There should be a two term limit so new blood can serve the voters and not get entrenched in the _bullshit of Washington. And while we’re on the subject, elections need to go back to a popular vote so every one counts.

      Popular vote would have kept us from the first term, and seemingly the second, of W. I could have handled that. So could have the US economy. Or soldiers stationed in Iraq because of WMDs that didn’t exist. Or, English grammar being used properly. President Obama says the illegal immigrants need to be able to speak English. Hell, we had a President for 8 years who couldn’t speak it.

        George W was an Ivy League school graduate. He was not dumb. To make such a comment, is ignorant.

        WMD’s was not the primary reason for the war with Iraq. Do your history checks.

        The U.S. economy was not destroyed by George W. I challenge you to find one act he passed or removed that contributed to the collapse. One. Name me one law Captain.
