When I lived through Hurricane Andrew, we didn't see any federal help in my neighborhood for 2 weeks.
******* racist Bush 41 hates Cubans, I guess.
Yeah, that too was all politics. If you remember that was 1992. Election year right? Just a few months before the election. August, 1992. Lawton Chiles, governor of Florida (a swing state) and a democrat decided not to formally ask for federal help. That is why you see so many governors declare a state of emergency. There is a formal process that happens.
Well, the democrats set up the republicans again and sacrificed the citizens to do it. They BLAMED Bush for not sending FEMA. The MEDIA of course did not hold the DEMOCRAT Lawton Chiles responsible. What did Clinton do? He went down there, took some photo ops. Made themselves look like robin hood to the gullible and that it worked.
