Empty Embrace… Hurricane Sandy Victim Upset After Being Played By Obama .......

"Played" by our President....NO!....Really!?..... I'd dare say his entire Presidency is an "Empty Embrace"....

 I was very excited and felt warm by the embrace thinking this is really going to happen. I’m going to get the help I need because he promised that. I’ve gotten no help. I’ve gotten nothing but ‘No, you’re not covered for this. No, you’re not covered for that.”

CBS Praises Obama for Post-Sandy Visit, Attacked Bush for Same with Katrina......

Drive-by Media double standard...nooooo.....REALLY?!

 CBS News aired a segment full of praise for President Obama's visit to Staten Island in the wake of Hurricane Sandy Friday. But this positive spin is in stark contrast to the scolding the network gave President Bush when he visited the Gulf Coast after Hurricane Katrina hit in 2005.

Media Slammed Mitt's Food Donations, Now Sandy Victims Plead for... Food Donations......

The Old Media spent several days last week attacking Mitt Romney for his October 30 event in Ohio where he presided over supporters coming together to donate money, clothing, and food for the victims of Hurricane Sandy. Then the food donations were ridiculed. Yet now ABC News is reporting that victims of the storm are calling for food donations from the public.

Bloomberg Wouldn't Let Guard Into Brooklyn Over Their Possession of Guns.....

And what does he think the word "Guard" means....?!?!? We're in for ALOT more of this if the election goes South Tuesday!!!

But at least as of Thursday, according to Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz, as reported by Eli Rosenburg at the the Brooklyn Paper, which calls itself the borough's "leading news media," the mayor has refused a request to allow the Guard into the borough. Based on resource deployment priorities, the Mayor's refusal could be justified. But wait until you see the actual reason Bloomberg gave for his refusal, one which you might think would have received more media attention by now (bolds are mine):

Decatur Utilities crews home after issues with union - WAFF-TV: News, Weather and Sports for Huntsville, AL

THIS is BIGGER Government at work...!?!?!

Romney written in sand on Point Pleasant beach during Obama’s Jersey flyover......

Take that Christie!



Pool report from POTUS trip to NJ: Someone has written "ROMNEY" in large letters in the sand at the north end of Point Pleasant Beach.

Does a Big Storm Require Big Government?.....

"We know liberals are worried that President Obama might lose next week, but are they so panicky that they want to suggest even before [Hurricane Sandy] has passed that Mitt Romney and Republicans are against disaster relief? Apparently so. ... [T]he liberals are excavating remarks from one of the early GOP debates. CNN's John King asked if 'the states should take on more' of a role in disaster relief as FEMA was running out of money. Mr. Romney: 'Absolutely.

Bloomberg to Obama: Stay Out of NYC....

First time ( and probably the last time ) I agree with Bloomberg............

And Mayor Michael Bloomberg of New York City doesn’t have time for that nonsense. He’s actually too busy being the mayor of a city in major crisis to squire Obama around for his election campaign.

Today, Bloomberg rejected Obama’s offer to visit the city. “We’d love to have him, but we’ve got lots of things to do,” said Bloomberg. It was “fine” for Obama to visit New Jersey, Bloomberg said. “People understand the storm and he doesn’t have to … he’s got a lot of things to do.”

Power Fail: White House Directs Storm Victims To … The Internet.....

When President Barack Obama urged Americans under siege from Hurricane Sandy to stay inside and keep watch on ready.gov for the latest, he left out something pretty important — where to turn if the electricity goes out.

Despite the heightened expectation of widespread power and cable television failures, everyone from the president to local newscasters seem to expect the public to rely entirely on the Internet and their TVs for vital news and instructions.

MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell Questions the Sincerity of Mitt Romney Collecting Donations for Superstorm Sandy Victims....

And...if The "One" did this - he'd be god-like.....

Yes, with major weather events like Superstorm Sandy, the Red Cross does put an emphasis on monetary donations. That’s probably why, along with tables “piled high with flashlights, batteries, diapers, toothbrushes, mini-deodorants, fleece blankets, cereal, toilet paper and canned goods,” the Romney event also featured two large TV screens encouraging supporters to text “REDCROSS” to 90999 and “make a $10 donation.”

'Forward': Obama gets a little electioneering in during FEMA briefing .....

President Obama may have suspended his campaign rallies due to Hurricane Sandy, but he managed to squeeze in his campaign slogan — intentionally or not — during a briefing Tuesday with federal emergency officials.

Romney Turns Campaign Rally Into Disaster Relief Event....

Romney early today bagged plans to go to Lima and Dayton Tuesday, citing Hurricane Sandy. But his campaign just sent a release: Tomorrow’s event in Dayton is on – this time as a disaster relief event where Romney may make brief remarks. The campaign is encouraging attendees to bring disaster relief supplies to the event.

Brown, Warren cancel tomorrow’s Senate debate.....

 “The Scott Brown campaign today announced that out of concern for the hardship faced by people in the path of Hurricane Sandy that he will not be participating in tomorrow’s fourth and final debate,” campaign spokesman Colin Reed said in a statement. “It is simply not appropriate to go forward with a political debate when a disaster strikes. The focus for all of us before, during and after the storm, needs to be on emergency response and disaster relief, not campaigns and politics.”

Shortly after, Warren bowed out of the event.

The Patriots have landed..............

Whew!!!!!!!!!

The Patriots have returned safely to the United States.

The team departed London this morning and a team spokesman confirmed the Patriots landed at Boston's Logan Airport around noon.

The team moved up its travel plan to try to get home ahead of the main impact of Hurricane Sandy. The Patriots defeated the Rams at London's Wembley Stadium in an NFL International Series game on Sunday.

Gangs Plan Hurricane Looting Spree Via Twitter .....

Love this sign.....Amen!


 Scores of Twitter users have flooded the social networking site announcing their plans to go on looting sprees once Hurricane Sandy makes landfall, as the New York National Guard announced it would put troops on duty in Long Island to prevent such activity.

Obama Nixes Campaign Stop, Returning to Washington......

Notice Carney says the return is due to “deteriorating weather conditions.” That is, Obama is probably returning early less to “monitor the preparations” than out of concern by officials that they might not have been able to get him back into Washington if they waited until the afternoon.

Or perhaps the political team finally calculated they would on balance be worse for his reelection prospects if he were seen campaigning while the New Jersey shore was becoming part of the Atlantic Ocean.

Leadership: Romney Uses Campaign Bus to Deliver Hurricane Relief.....

LEADERSHIP!!!

This is what America IS....this is what American's DO!

The Romney campaign has canceled campaign events, commercials, and fundraising appeals in states that will be impacted by Hurricane Sandy, and is instead using a campaign bus to help deliver supplies to those who will be impacted by what forecasters are predicting may be a "storm of the century."
