Again, the president's job is to enable federal funding and resources for the recovery, and to ensure that his FEMA folks are doing what they're supposed to be doing. And he's done that. So your premise is false to begin with.

Please, I am curious.

If you were the president, what would you do?
Cut the red tape he promised to cut. Those people can't get any help because of the red tape. He never planned to help them, he loves to see America in crisis. The downfall of America is his goal. Are you really that blind???

He has NOT done any of that..! FEMA is a bigger disaster than Sandy. Don't you know any facts?

People there are getting lots of help. I have family there, and I know first-hand what is going on in the New Jersey towns. No, not everything is going perfectly with a recovery operation of this scale, but you can't wave a magic wand and just make everything perfect in the blink of an eye. It's certainly better than after Katrina, when they had people lawlessly raping and killing each other while going hungry in sports stadiums.

Again, the president's job is to enable federal funding and resources for recovery and to ensure with FEMA leadership that the job is being done. It's not to personally go repair all of the roads and beaches.

Show me those facts stating that there have been no signs of recovery the hurricane area. I'll go looking when I have time and post up some as well.

Golfing is tiresome. And Moochelle will be thinking of you while she chows down on the best foods and resides in the most exclusive resorts.
What did you expect from the most hollow, vacous, POS ever to seek, much less hold, the office.

What did you expect from that bufoon? After all, he voted "Present" over 150 times as a State Senator (as clueless then as he is clueless now).

A pile of dung doesn't change its stench.

And the amazing thing is that some people took this long to realize it, and some fools STILL don't get it.

Just the usual empty rhetoric from the Empty Suit-in-Chief.
