2. Well, HOPEFULLY everyone learned from Katrina that this is serious stuff, no political games.

ROBME will be the exception. SOMEHOW he'll find a way, but that man can't learn NUTHIN.

4. Oh, he's already on the case!!! See this thread:

Mitt Romney: Federal Disaster Relief For Tornado And Flood Victims Is ‘Immoral'

And the Teahadist wingnuts will be all over this announcement.

See, we tole (sic) you, he's gonna steal the election! It's gonna be Marshall (sic) Law! All the Liberty and Freedom loving Patriots are gonna be shipped to the FEMA camps! We tole (sic) you! Get yur guns loaded 'n' yur ammo ready! Ah-murika is under Attack!!11!!! *Spit, drool, pant!*

7. Oh, how funny. You've gotta watch what you say or it will come back and bite you in the butt!

Eh, Romney?

I cannot believe how many times he's trapped himself in a corner. Of course, he can always come back and say he never said that. He has a whole closet full of those instances.

Sandy sounds terrible for the New York area. I hope they are exaggerating to get people to move out and be safe.

9. And as usual, Obama puts people ahead of politicking. Too bad he had to cancel some events, but he's

There to make sure people don't die from this. A 10-foot storm surge is expected to hit Connecticut. Naturally, this will be effecting all those places on the water. And cold temperatures with snow possible, mixing with the storm, is a serious matter.

This sounds very much like the hurricane a friend said happened in the thirties in that area in November. She and her husband were on their way from Massachuetts to Florida. She said NYC flooded, they had a terrible time traveling.

Here's hoping they are exaggerating, too. But 'Better safe than sorry.' I'm hoping this won't affect turnout as much as some have reported it might.

6. My President knows how important government

funding for science is.

Imagine the mess with Republican cuts and outsourcing.

8. A vote for Romney will install Pat Robertson to replace the National Weather Service!

We're blessed to have a President who loves people.
