Over 9,500 storage containers filled with supplies block the port in Puerto Rico

[deanrd]

So here we have an unfolding tragedy that will dwarf anything we have seen in the United States in generations.

I know, funny huh? Republicans laugh when people suffer. Most of the time, it's because they cause the suffering.

 

[deanrd]

They were showing us the pictures. And thousands of those are refrigerated because of perishables and medicine with each one using it's own generator. It takes 4,000 gallons of fuel a day to run them all.

Talk about poor organization. They have no way to get the supplies to the people. And they say more ships won't do any good because of the blockage.

This is probably the most poorly organized "rescue" mission in history. It's like the Keystone Cops are running things. If Hillary or Obama were president, the Air Force, the Army and the National Guard would have every helicopter there to move supplies, transport road crews and airlift people to safety.

The disaster here is going to be enormous. Many more dying than the number that died because of the storm itself. Just like after Katrina, when the GOP held the presidency and both houses. America just doesn't seem to learn or even want to learn.

Seems to me that the liberal governor is the one to blame. Isnt he in charge of that island? Yes he is. Now it will be those who work for President who will come in and organize the situation as a business leader should.

If Hillary would be president , she would be asking for donations for her(I just threw up) Charity, and while stealing most of that money, then give a pittance to those in need. Haiti anyone?

You can never prove Clinton stole from Haiti because the guy who was going to testify about that died of suicide, supposedly.

I don't have to prove anything, just look at the Poor Haitians that were supposed to get the funding. You know "black people".

Typical right winger: I don't have to prove anything. Saying it is proof enough.

Notice dean complains about how it's being done yet does nothing to make it better.

He is a typical liberal Democrat.

All show....No go .....

Wonder why he hasn't gone to PR if he thinks he can do better?

They just reported that there are now 10,000 Containers stacked around the harbor. They have no place else to put them. And they use 4,000 gallons of fuel a day keeping medicine and food from rotting.

We have the most expensive military in the world. Where are they? If their job is to protect Americans, then protect Americans living in Puerto Rico. Get some planes and helicopters there.

But seriously, if Trump stiffed his own workers, why would he care about Puerto Ricans?

Tell me, where are the planes going to land Einstein?

Planes land all kinds of places. Some land on water. Others have these things called "wheels". They only need a smooth "landing strip". It just has to be long enough. Then there's helicopters and air drops. Or are you saying Republicans don't understand these things?

Yea, those evil Republicans caused the hurricane. .... ...

 

[Fang]

Liberals whining and playing politics instead of trying to come up with solutions. Same shit different day.

 

[deanrd]

Wo, did you see Lt. General Russel Honore slam Trump? Amazing. So who is the General?

Puerto Rico relief desperately needs urgency

“We need to break the rules. You can’t follow the rules to save lives," retired lieutenant general Russel Honore, who helped turn around the Hurricane Katrina recovery in 2005, told CNN on Thursday.

----------------

Remember, he took over after Bush and his crew let nearly two thousand Americans die in New Orleans AFTER Katrina was over.

He said air drops should have started days ago. And paratroopers dropped with them to organize and make sure supplies are distributed fairly. He said an aircraft carrier should already be there. That there should have been evacuations. That the US military know how to drive those trucks and quickly prepare air fields. That wide body transport jets should have already been commandeered. He went on and on about what should have already happened.

And what was Trump doing? Trying to get white Americans to hate black athletes who were protesting the murder of one unarmed black man after another.

 

[deanrd]

And look at what Republicans here at the USMB are posting on this thread.

Yea, those evil Republicans caused the hurricane. .... ...

And other ridiculous bullshit.

I'm no disaster expert, but even I know what needed to happen.

Look at post #21 and #27.

Trump should grab that Lt. General the way Bush did after it was discovered Bush was an inept ass white who had no idea what he was supposed to do and turn everything over to General Honore.

This is going to be a way bigger disaster than after the Katrina fiasco. Many, many more are going to die from disease and starvation. The GOP will have to explain that after first Katrina and now after this Hurricane. Republicans are inept. They are awful. All they can do is steal and redistribute the wealth, upward.

Retired General Gets Fired Up Over Puerto Rico Response, Curses Live on CNN: ‘That’s Bullsh*t!’

Here is the General cursing on live TV.

 

[deanrd]

“I heard a conversation earlier today that indicated if the task force commander wanted to do air drops, he could make a recommendation,” Honore exclaimed. “That’s bullshit! Now that Commander Buchanan is on the ground, he needs to be giving orders and figure out what rule need to be breaked (sic) to do to save lives.”

He went on to say the White House was “trying to put lipstick on a pig” while noting that the scale of the response is all wrong, leaving no time for anchor Anderson Cooper to immediately react to the dropping of his swear word.

the news on nbc that i was watching said there 16 navel ships there unloading and they showed them unloading....try another channel dean maybe you will see a different story.....they said nothing about stuff being stuck there....

You have no idea what you are talking about. Can't you be anything other than a dipshit? Seriously, if you want to prove you're ignorant, we get it. You're ignorant.

If you are that concerned Deanie boy.

Why don't you use some of your vacation days and take off work to go there and help.

I'm sure there are numerous relief agencies willing to put volunteers like you to work unloading the ships and delivering supplies. ....

Dean is nothing but a partisan hack. He doesn't give a shit about the people of Puerto Rico. They are just inferior brown people to him who are to be used as political pawns.

I love that game!

The ports are destroyed. But democrats will lie about that too.

Is there anything democrats won't lie about?

How can you tell if they are lying ?

Their lips are moving.

If Obama was president, and the exact was going on, ole Dean would be praising him.

You mean while people are dying in Puerto Rico, Obama would be Tweeting about the NFL?
I can't imagine Obama doing something like that.
Besides, when people were dying after Katrina, Bush had a birthday party to go to. Good job Brownie.
And while people are dying in Puerto Rico, Trump is working on a tax plan that would save his family money. Smart. Typical GOP.

So Obama is in PR ?

Didn't think so.

STFU

So how did Obama's "rescue" mission at Benghazi work out?

Nah, He would be out playing golf.

 

[Two Thumbs]

Is there some reason the people that live there aren't volunteering to help?

Or do they just understand that their corrupt government is going to steal it anyway?

Charity Navigator - Rating for The Clinton Foundation

Where Does Clinton Foundation Money Go? - FactCheck.org

The Clinton Foundation was probably the most scrutinized foundation in world history with the GOP Senate investigators, the House investigators, the FBI and even the CIA looked at their contacts including every media organization in the world. All looking for something. And all they could find were conspiracies.

However, the Trump Foundation is still under criminal investigation. You do know that, right? Tell me you know that.

Clinton pressed Trump to deploy hospital ship Comfort to Puerto Rico. Now it’s preparing to go.

She's been active on issues for 9/11 workers

Oops!

Factcheck.Org...Pravda would be proud of that Org... Just proves how much of an idiot the deanr is.
