The disastrous Republicons are going to have to stave a lot of children and kill a lot of grandmas to pay for this mess.

Are you on drugs??? Your logic makes no sense, who (singular US citizen) today will be forced to "coughed up the billions of dollars" for this?







It's YOUR ultra-moronic statement.

Your claim above, apparently. is that the government doesn't fund FEMA, but the "citizens do".

I simply asked you which citizens were going to pay for the Hurricane Irene damage, if not the federal government collectively acting on our behalf.

It's a question that you idiot Tea Baggers should ask as you seek to eliminate the federal government.

LOL here's a clue we have always picked up the tab or do you think government money comes from thin air?







And which US citizen coughed up the billions of dollars - BY HIMSELF - to pay the cost for Katrina? or Andrew?

ooh, quick run to your mailbox and see if your welfare check came today!






What does "FEMA disaster assistance" have to do with "welfare"?

You think that middle class working people who have lost everything in a natural disaster, don't deserve the right to live in America, because they are "freeloaders" somehow?

Or do you think like most conservatives, and think that we should be "nation building" places like iraq, while our own nation suffers?

Surely the cost looks miniscule next to the cost of the Mexican invasion.

Irene could be among 10 costliest U.S. disasters.....







..... and the ONLY one where the citizens of this nation have been forced to pick up the tab themselves because congress led by the republicans are being held hostage by the Tea Party.

When Hurricane Katrina Hit the Gulf Coast....According to The Left Wing Liberals and Media it was all Bush's fault.....Now Hurricane Irene Hits and according to the Left Wing Liberal and Media...It's the Republicans Fault???? How about a National Disaster just happens...people buy Insurance themselves to portect their own property and The Federal Gov. provide for the safety and security of the Region, rebuild the infrastructure, and help restore order....that is called promoting the General welfare of the people...OR....IF YOU WANT TO PLAY THE BLAME GAME...THEN LET'S BLAME OBAMA...HE IS THE PRESIDENT NOW !!! SOUNDS STUPID DON'T IT??? Every Word a liberal spurts out sounds stupid to me....

Republicans don't deserve FEMA assitance since your party is against it.
