I am glad that both the governor(s) and the president are acting in concert, not politically posturing, and seem to be handling the disaster competently.
Repugs' willful misgovernment and governmental malfeasance, no matter how many Americans get screwed or killed, is part of the Repug "govt-IS-THE-problem" ideology.
eg, here's Gecko failing to enforce the law, now people are dead and sick
Romney Ignored NECC in Mass Added to Meningitis Outbreak
The meningitis outbreak that originated in Massachusetts from a compound pharmacy that had no legal rights to mass produce drugs or shots was an epidemic that could have been avoided.
The investigation thus far reveals that dating back to 2004, when Mitt Romney was Governor of Massachusetts many complaints came in about the NECC company and he let them go with just a slap on the hand.

dubya's coke-and- parties at MMS, dubya appointing incompetent assholes like Dr Death and Brownie to run FEMA, which itself was in great shape under Clinton until dubya rolled FEMA into DHS, etc, etc, etc.
So you're saying you're mad because Barry was writing checks before the storm?
lol edit.
lol simpleton
The ‘I’ of the Storm
The dramatic homestretch ad for President Obama, running on every network and in all media markets, is a home run, devastating for Mitt Romney.
And, best of all, the president didn’t have to pay for it, or even say, “I approve this message.” It was a total gift — and from a Republican and top Romney surrogate.
Gov. Chris Christie, the fleece-wearing, order-barking Neptune of the Jersey Shore, was all over TV Tuesday, effusively praising the president for his luminous leadership on Hurricane Sandy, the same president he mocked last week at a Romney rally in Virginia as a naif groping to find “the light switch of leadership.”
As Romney roams the Midwest and Florida struggling to stay relevant, miming coordinating storm response with G.O.P. governors and collecting canned goods to send East, his fair-weather pal Christie failed to give Mittens any disaster relief.
On ABC, CBS and NBC, Christie hailed Obama as “outstanding.” On MSNBC, he said the president “has been all over this,” and on CNN, he called Obama “incredibly supportive.” The big guy even tweeted his thanks to the slender one.
Most astonishing of all, the New Jersey governor went on Fox News and spoke words rarely heard on that network: “I have to give the president great credit.”
“I spoke to the president three times yesterday,” Christie gushed. “He called me for the last time at midnight last night, asking what he could do.”
Christie also extolled FEMA, even though Romney has said it is “immoral” to spend money on federal disaster relief when the deficit is so big.

Repugs want NO DISASTER RELIEF SPENDING ANYWHERE, ANYTIME unless offset by spending cuts.
I guess there have been no other governors of Mass since Romney left.
You Lie, as always.
You're a simpleton, as always.
NECC was Gecko campaign contributor, buying Gecko's non-enforcement.
lol unconnected dots.
lol simpleton
Did NECC "buy" the subsequent governors?
.
I don't care about any MA gov this week but Gecko. He's running on his record as predatory wealth stripping LBO ace, and MA governor, so all is fair game.
And yes, NECC and all corporations buy politicians to escape or defeat regulations, taxes, etc, etc.
Of course you don't. That would take critical thinking. Best to just let your RSS feed dictate your actions.
lol simpleton.
"That would take critical thinking"
no, "deflection" thinking TB
Gecko had his chance to clean up NECC and prevent deaths, and he deferred to NECC as source of funds. GFY
Which blog told you to say that?"That would take critical thinking"

lol simpleton.
Kinda hard to square against the healthcare system he put in place in Mass.
Logic sucks doesn't it?
Well, it is good to see that state, local, and federal govt, as well as our fellow citizens have exceeded the incredibly low bar set by Katrina.
Historically, this is the worst storm ever in the area... I mean, even worse than the "perfect storm" or even the Hurricane of 1821...
But let's play it down, election is next week
We already went past the "F's". This is a "S".
As always, natural disaster is a Great Economic Stimulus:
For Builders, the Storm Is Good for Business
Bad news for hurricane-ravaged homeowners is good news for at least one contingent: construction companies and the army of workers they plan to hire, many of whom have been idled and ailing from the housing bust for nearly half a decade.
Two days into the destruction from Hurricane Sandy, phones were ringing nonstop at Garden State Public Adjusters in Marlton, N.J., ProStar Residential Disaster Cleanup in Milford, Conn., and other businesses down the Eastern seaboard. Construction crews cannot get into many of the affected areas yet, because of flooded streets, detours and debris. Even so customers are lining up, begging for help to pluck branches out of windows, suck water from basements and living rooms, and rebuild damaged roofs and homes.
It is an exercise many contractors had been through before and needed desperately.
"I always look forward to a natural disaster," said Doug Palmieri, owner of Palmieri Construction in Middlefield, Conn. "The last two storms we had around here, the snow we had included, helped out the contracting business quite a bit."
Construction companies and insurance adjusters that are newer or less known have begun circling waterlogged neighborhoods in their cars and trucks and distributing fliers, handshakes and condolences.
"I drove around with my truck and a couple people stopped me and asked me for a business card," said Mayara Goncalves, owner of Queiroga Construction in Bridgeport, Conn. "Unfortunately for everyone else, it's going to be good for us."
The five-person Queiroga Construction is hoping to get by with longer hours and subcontractors. Many construction companies down the East Coast, though, say they expect to hire, although the magnitude of the work and the number of additional laborers are still to be determined.
"There is going to be so much manpower required, and we are already spread so thin," said Bill O'Connell, president of Elite Public Adjusters, which runs both an insurance adjustment company and a restoration and construction business in North Wildwood, N.J. He expects at least a million dollars of work from this storm. "I'm a little worried about being overwhelmed. The phones are ringing off the hook and we won't be able to get to a lot of people."

Shovel-ready!
google it, many places do ented the report on NECC in 2004 and Gecko's silly handslap, allowing NECC to continue its homicidal practices.
Gecko refuses to run on, even mention, his Obamacare for MA.
It's impossible square all the your boy Gecko spews because he lies non-stop on every issue.
Last week the motto was "Big Change", this week it's "Real Change"
Another big lie his is plan to be bipartisan President, but his record of 800+ vetoes as MA gov beLIES that claim.
He's all you got TB, suck him hard.
