Reminds me of the comedy routine on hunger in Africa from the great Sam Kinison.

Quote:You want to send them something, you want to help, send them U-Hauls. Send them U-Hauls, some luggage and send them a guy out there he goes, ‘hey, you know, we’ve been driving out here every day with your food like the last 34 years. And we were driving out here a day across the desert, and it occurred to us there wouldn’t be world hunger if you people would live where the food is! You live in a desert, understand that?! You live in a ******* desert!! Nothing grows out of here! Nothing’s going to grow out of here!

So you think this all funny at a time like this. People are hurting real bad at this time and you come around here telling jokes.

Heard lots of jokes about black folks after Katrina

Right...and my "joke" was far less critical than someone saying a couple days after a catastrophic flood that people should not "beg" for generators but rather have preemptively moved.

But RBD, c'mon man. I was not making a joke about any victim of this tragedy, and you know that.

Suffering rural white people don't get progressives whose only career qualification is connections elected.

How much control does Biden have over the NC National Guard? Answer is none unless it's war time.

Why isn't the 82nd Airborne activated and assisting?

Bush did it for Katrina. Biden's handlers did it for Afghan evacuations.

FFS they're stationed IN North Carolina.

Tom seems to be very aggravated about Trump being on the ground in GA and assisting with hurricane relief efforts. Tom gets all his talking points from other stupid liberals. I’m going to assume they are all mad about it. If that’s the case………… awesome!! Anything that infuriates the left is a good thing.

Tampon Tim & Kamala don't give a **** about rural America. Period.

Quote:At the request of FEMA, the Secretary of Defense has authorized the movement of up to 1,000 active-duty Soldiers to support the delivery of food, water, and other critical aid "over the last mile to the point of need" to communities impacted by Hurricane Helene.

These soldiers are part of an Infantry Battalion Task Force, formed from the XVIII Airborne Corps, to include members of the 82nd Airborne and other units stationed at Fort Liberty, NC. The task force includes a Forward Support Company with the necessary support structures (fuel, water, mechanics, etc.) to support FEMA in stabilizing critical lifelines and essential services for communities in North Carolina.

So, again, this administration is doing everything they can, and in a timely fashion.

Apparently that triggers the MAGAt crowd who just can't resist turning tragedy into a political opportunity. Shameless.

Wasn't it democrat Rahm Emmanuel who said "never let a tragedy go to waste"?

Biden simply being there hindered recovery operations. So, no, this administration isn't doing everything it can to help save lives.
