Ever since Hurricane Katrina, Republicans have prayed for a massive disaster to lay at the feet of a Democratic Prez

Every storm is their Katrina.

And every time, local leaders kill that narrative because the government's response is generally largely competent.

1. How does a Party of Anti-socialists, get anything done during a national crisis?

2. The republicans are a hateful bunch who live to see others miserable

4. My sister, in Hendersonville, NC, had power restored on Wednesday

Don’t know how wide an area was involved

7. Exactly and having been through Florida Hurricanes and Texas Snowmageddon, that's pretty quick

5. I'm a bit confused here...

The link reads "Every Storm Is Their Katrina, yet the story that came up for me is something titled differently, that read as a hit piece on President Obama's response to Sandy, from a right wing "news" outlet that mediabiasfactcheck.com rates as a questionable source.

Or am I missing the point?

6. What is to be confused about?

They frame every storm as the Democrat's Katrina.

That is literally what the article framed Sandy as - Obama's Katrina.

8. Expectations are skewed.

It's widely accepted that for the first 48hrs after a disaster... YOU keep yourself alive.

As soon as the floods, tides, fires, earthquake threat is over, State forces and volunteers hit the area... the FED hits last and heaviest.

It's always been that way.
