This guy is a disgrace to all of America... He cannot disappear from public life fast enough.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) said Hurricane Katrina was "nothing in comparison to what happened to the people in New York and New Jersey" from Hurricane Sandy. Katrina killed 1,833 people compared to 120 deaths from Sandy.

Katrina killed that many people because Bush let American Citizens sit in rancid flood waters for 2 weeks.
The storm wasn't as powerful. And the 120 deaths is a testament to good governance. FEMA, Cuomo, Christie and Obama deserve a great deal of credit.
Mississippi had more deaths at 238 than what occured with Sandy along the coast, was that due to rancid flood waters too?
How anyone can say Sandy was worse than Katrina is beyond me. Reid is walking his comments back.
