I don't give a fuck, this storm should be politicized.

Not by Obama or the democratic party, but by us, the commoners .
Republican response to storm." Everyone for themselves."; and their
responses to environmental disasters over the past years has been dreadful.
Lets get those stories out. We have the right and obligation to do so.

The GOP sure liked to polticze Katrina, acting as if the city deserved it because they were Black. It's true and you know it.

You dont need to stab at windmills to find examples to validate your point. During the Iowa flooding they openly said "see, this is what good white conservatives do. We work together not wait for the gubment." I cant begin to tell you how many times Ive heard that or read that on a message board. They are disgusting people
