Louisiana, obama doesn't need you anymore, so why should he stop playing golf to visit?

[2aguy]

Bush had an incompetent in charge of FEMA, remember?

No....Louisiana had a democrat governor and democrat mayor who screwed up the response to Katrina........that mayor is now in jail on corruption charges......had the state officials done their job, the federal government screw ups would not have mattered.

So why does the federal government matter now?

Not saying it doesn't....you guys are the ones saying that obama playing golf isn't a big deal..........when he attacked Bush for not being on the Ground....at least Bush went there...and stayed out of the way of the relief efforts.....obama won't even get there until Tuesday....after he finishes some more golf with the rich and famous.

What happened to conservatives calling FEMA unconstitutional? What happened to conservatives saying federal disaster relief isn't a constitutional power of the federal government?

Pretty much all I said was that

1. The LA governor expressed his opinion that the president should delay coming down and

2. that if the president had gone there immediately, nuts like you would be attacking him for THAT.

Our president will be visiting Louisiana early next week. It will be good to have someone who can actually help rather than a reality TV star

The governor of Louisiana would prefer he doesn't visit, because of the complications of security, diversion of police and other resources.

So shut up.

I'm sure you would have given Bush the same deference.

Let's compare floods with floods, not monster hurricanes...

You mean a successful real estate developer and entreprenuer.....vs. a failed community activist whose community that he was an activist for is now a shooting gallery where the people there are being killed by other democrats......

How is Trump in the way delivering relief?

3 squad cars, 23 motorcycles and the attending officers, all diverted to Trump.

And that's just that photo. Add on to that airport usage and airspace restrictions either, and the media mob.

For Obama, it's ten times as much. Hence, he's staying away, until things settle down.
