So you would have praised Obama if he had denied all federal aid to the states he didn't win.
Fascinating.
Didn't Obama deny Texas aid when it was having all those forest fires?
Obama admin. denied Texas' request for disaster declaration to help fight wildfires
From your own link:
"But the statement leaves out a crucial relevant fact.
FEMA has not denied federal aid for the Texas wildfires; it’s approved fire-fighting grants adding up to $23 million — far more than Oklahoma’s approximate $3 million in disaster aid."
How much have the Feds FEMA spent on paying out for those wealthy idiots who keep rebuilding their $10 million dollar houses that slide down hills in waves of mud about every three years, or subsidizing morons who repeatedly build on earthquake prone fault lines, and yes, people who build in wildfire prone areas in Cali? Most of California is a disaster area, so your 'point' here is just idiotic. $23 mil for a comparatively rare occurrence in Texas or $3 mil in Okie is nothing. Try to come up with some intelligent 'point' at least once in a while.
The claim was that Obama denied Texas aid. Texas got 23 million in aid.
Now who was right and who was wrong?
The topic is California, not Texas; you can babble and make these lame attempts at changing the topic all you want, it just proves you're desperate. Try addressing what I said instead of gibbering and whining and deflecting.
