My question is, will Romney follow in Ryan's footsteps and wait for till after the clean up for a photo-op of Romney clearing a few treess that the campaign bought at Home Depot for the occasion?
Since that whole liberal lie has since been debunked and it has been proved that Congressman Ryan and his wife washed dirty dishes(the director of the kitchen admitted that he was misinformed) - what exactly is the point of your ridiculous post?
Don't tell me that you still believe that false story?
Well considering that in this case he is acting as a citizen not as the government such thinking is invalid.
And yes states rights has been under attack for a while particularly by the current administration and I as someone with family in Florida I can assure that sending categorical or even block grants to state run relief orgs who know the state better than a massive federal bureaucracy will mitigate the inefficiencies and mistakes FEMA has repeatedly made.
Do provide some examples where states rights have "been under attack for a while particularly by the current administration" besides your opinion.
You made the statement, please support it.

How do you know what he's done during numerous other disasters?
Romney shows both leadership and character.
I'll agree with that, he is a character allright!
Willard is an oppotunist, when will people see that? he says and does things to try to make himself look like he cares. Ask the people who lost their jobs when he ran BAIN CAPITAL.
You probably don't know this, but isn't FEMA one of the federal agencies he and his running mate (eddie munster) want to eliminate?

I'd feel better about his decision if he removed or painted over his campaign logos. Leave politicing out of a natural disaster.
Good point.
If President Obama did the same, the title of this thread would be "Obama takes advantage of storm for photo-op."
Oh, well. At least the OP is honest in his/her hypocrisy.
Private citizens can't volunteer or demonstrate leadership? That's news to me. Tell that to all of the Texan citizens who donated their time, money and even their homes to Louisiana people when hurricane Katrina hit. Tell that to every private organization for helping people in need. You are seriously misguided if you think it should only be the government involved while everyone else turns a blind eye.
As far as the rest of the vitriol about Romney from you and a few others about this, it's shameful and almost I feel sorry for those who are so angry and nasty.

I don't know about that.
But to anyone who looks into Romney's background and long history of volunteerism and donating, his current actions aren't surprising and wouldn't come off as simply a "campaign stunt" unless you were heavily biased against him.
