George Bush did not come.---WHAT COULD HE DO?? WHY WOULD YOU WANT HIM THERE?

FEMA did nothing.--YES THEY DID, WHO DO YOU THINK PAYS FOR ALL THE OVERTIME ALL THE VILAGES, TOWNS,ETC THAT WERE NEEDED TO CLEAR ALL THE SNOW, MOST SMALL TOWNS CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY THIS, IT WOULD CRIPPLE THEM.

No one howled for the government.--SEE ABOVE

No one blamed the government.--GOD MADE IT SNOW, NOT THE GOVERNMENT-SO WHY BLAME THEM????

No one even uttered an expletive on TV --THAT IS ALL THE ABC, NBC AND CBS TALKED ABOUT THE LAST 2 WEEKS

Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton did not visit.WHAT FOR???

Our Mayor did not blame Bush or anyone else.--SEE ABOVE

Our Governor did not blame Bush or anyone else, either.---SEE ABOVE

CNN, ABC, CBS, FOX or NBC did not visit - or report on this
category 5 snowstorm. --YEA, THEY DID

Nobody demanded $2,000 debit cards.--WHAT FOR, A SNOW STORM IS A SHORT TERM PROBLEM, YOU CAN GET PREPEARED, AND STILL HAVE YOUR HOME TO LIVE IN!!

No one asked for a FEMA Trailer House.---WHY, YOU STILL HAVE YOUR HOME TO LIVE IN, YOU MIGHT BE A LITTLE INCONVIENENCED, BUT YOU STILL HAVE YOUR HOME!!

No one looted.--THIS IS A SENSLESS REAMRK

Nobody - I mean Nobody demanded the government do something..--MY FRIEND, IF THE GOVERNMENT DID NOTHING, HOW DID THE ROADS GET OPEN?? DID IT ALL JUST DISSAPPEAR!!!! i THINK THE GOVERMENT DID A LOT TO MAKE SURE YOU WERE SAFE, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT

Nobody expected the government to do anything, either.---SEE ABOVE

No Larry King, No Bill O'Rielly, No Oprah, No Chris Mathews and
No Geraldo Rivera.--SENSLESS TALK

No Shaun Penn, No Barbara Striesand, No Hollywood types to be found.--SENSELESS TALK

Nope, we just melted the snow for water.--THEN WHAT ARE YOU COMPAINING ABOUT, DO YOU WANT A PITTY PARTY??

Sent out caravans of SUV's to pluck people out of snow engulfed cars.--THIS DOES NOT MAKE SENSE, YOU SAY THE ROADS WERE CLOSED, BUT SUV'S PLUCKED PEOPLE OUT OF CARS, AN SUV IS PRACTICALLY USELESS IN DEEP SNOW, THEY SIT TOO LOW

The truck drivers pulled people out of snow banks and didn't ask for a penny.---AGAIN, i THOUGHT YOU SAID THE ROADS WERE CLOSED

Local restaurants made food and the police and fire departments
delivered it to the snowbound families. Families took in the stranded people - total strangers.---tTIS IS WHAT ANY DECENT GOD FEARING MAN WOULD HAVE DONE---HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE LOADED TRUCKS OF FOOD, WATER, LIVESTOCK FOOD, SUPPLIES AND SHIPPED TO LA??? A $HITLOAD

We fired up wood stoves, broke out coal oil lanterns or Coleman lanterns.--WE HAVE TO DO THIS ANY TIME THE ELECTRIC GOES OUT, LIKE THE ICE STORM THAT HIT CENTRLAL IL IN NOVEMBER OR THE ONE THAT IS HITTING HERE NOW, WE HAVE 1/4" OF ICE AND MORE COMING!!! DO I WANT YOUR PITY, NO I AM PREPARED.

We put on extra layers of clothes because up here it is "Work or
Die".---HUH, A LOT OF PEOPLE I KNOW HAVE BEEN DOING THIS ON A DAILEY BASIS FOR YEARS, THAT IS THE WAY OF LIFE WE HAVE ACCEPTED.

We did not wait for some affirmative action government to get us
out of a mess created by being immobilized by a welfare program that
trades votes for 'sittin at home' checks.---YOU ARE JUST AN A$$ FOR THIS KIND OF COMMENT AFTER WHAT PEOPLE WENT THROUGH WITH kATRINA AND RITA!!!

Even though a Category "5" blizzard of this scale has never
fallen this early, we know it can happen and how to deal with it
ourselves.---THIS IS YOUR CHOICE TO LIVE WHERE YOU ARE, JUST LIKE THE PEOPLE IN NEW ORLEANS, IF YOU DO NOT LIKE THE SNOW OR THE THINGS THAT COME WITH IT, MOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TO A PLACE MORE TO YOUR LIKING, OTHER WISE, QUIT WHINING!!

"In my many travels, I have noticed that once one gets north of
about 48 degrees North Latitude, 90% of the world's social problems
evaporate.----NO COMMENT, YOU ARE JUST AS BAD AS THE PEOPLE YOU ARE PUTTING DOWN WITH THIS NONSENSE OF A POST. NORMALLY I DO NOT GET FUZZED UP, BUT THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. YOU SOUND LIKE A POLITICIAN LOOKING A FOR VOTES OR A CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL OF HONOR OR SOMETHING. YES THE PEOPLE IN LA ASKED FOR HELP, THE INSURANCE COMPANIES ARE TRYIGN TO SCAM THEM, THEIR WHOLE WAY LIFE HAS BEEN TURNED ON ITS HEAD, I THINK IF YOU HAD BEEN IN THEIR SITUATION, YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN IN THE SAME LINES LOOKIGN FOR THE SAME HELP, YOU ARE NOT GOD
