Mayor Nagin: Mayor Reed—Emergency Experts
Nobody Wins
The city of Atlanta was hit with a major ice storm yesterday, hundreds of people were stranded on highways and schools for more than 23 hours… and it’s no surprise that the Democratic mayor–did nothing.
The result was gridlock on freeways that are jammed even on normal days. Countless vehicles were stranded and many of them abandoned. Officials said 239 children spent Tuesday night aboard school buses; thousands of others stayed overnight in their schools.
One woman’s 12-mile commute home took 16 hours. Another woman gave birth while stuck in traffic; police arrived just in time to help. Drivers who gave up trying to get home took shelter at fire stations, churches and grocery stores.
CNN did a good job drilling Mayor Reed on WHY he did nothing, but notice how good he is at passing the blame: It was the teacher’s fault. This morning–they were blaming the weatherman–because George Bush wasn’t around. Yes, it’s got to be rough when your President is a democrat and you are the mayor of a big city, and you can’t blame the President when you &$% up and your own citizens are mad at you.
But…guess what? Remember when the Mayor of New Orleans blamed President George W. Bush for Katrina?
Ray Nagin rose to American political fame in swift, albeit uncensored, fashion — as the New Orleans mayor who publicly trashed and pleaded with President George W. Bush to save his city in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. “Flying over in Air Force One doesn’t do it justice,” Nagin said during a radio interview a few days after the storm hit on Aug. 29, 2005.
Then the photo came out, of George flying over New Orleans and not even landing. Why, he should have sent in the 45th battalion! They never got over it, and to this day, President George W. Bush is blamed for the misery suffered after Katrina. But…it wasn’t his fault. He was actually following the law. By our Constitution, if you have a disaster in your city, it’s the Mayor and the Governor of that state that are responsible to handle it. The Federal government can only come in when ASKED. And nobody asked the President for DAYS.
Nobody Thinks that was because Nagin really messed up big time…the democrats manipulated it so that the President would be blamed, instead of the mayor.
When does a democrat NOT blame a republican for something that they do?
Wal-Mart came to the rescue when Mayor Nagin was sitting around bitching about everything. But that’s democrats. Nagin was such a crook. He is just now being persecuted for what he did during the time of Katrina. (READ ABOUT THAT HERE)
President George W. Bush did right by not landing…he really was thinking of the people. The whole apparatus of Air Force One would have been a headache at the time when people didn’t need one. Nevertheless…that didn’t stop Obama from landing In New Jersey and getting his photo-op with Chris Christie while he made all kinds of promises those suffering people after Hurricane Sandy—-
Which of course, were all lies.
The CNN reporter is right: It was the mayor’s fault. He should have salted those roads. Atlanta is not doing too good financially, and if Kasim is anything like Nagin, who knows what corruption he is in? As for the democratic governor, Nathan Deal?
Around the time the traffic jam started, Deal and Reed were at an award ceremony recognizing the mayor as the “2014 Georgian of the Year.” Deal spokesman Brian Robinson said the governor left before 1:30 p.m. and was in constant contact with emergency officials.
Nevertheless: It’s already been suggested that the small communities cannot handle things at all. All power should just be put in the hands of the President. I actually heard that on CNN. They can’t blame George Bush, so they are going to do the next best thing: Take all power away from the states and put that power in the hands of Obama.
Nobody Wins when democrats run the country.
So whatever happened to Nagin? He’s going to court:
The indictment states Nagin accepted more than $160,000 in bribes and truckloads of free granite for his family business in exchange for promoting the interests of businessman Frank Fradella — who secured millions of dollars in city contract work after the hurricane. The hurricane and its aftermath killed roughly 1,800 people and cost an estimated $108 billion.
Nagin moved to Dallas after leaving office and founded CRN Initiatives LLC, which specializes in publishing, public speaking and emergency preparedness.
You cannot make this stuff up.
Blame it on the Godfather….
Nobody Wonders
—Why FOX news downplayed this obvious overreacting of a Republican Congressman threatening to end the life of a reporter, but they did. CNN didn’t though—all they talked about today was the ice traffic jam in Georgia, and this incident. Right after it happened, he said this:
“I was extremely annoyed because I was doing NY1 a favor by rushing to do their interview first in lieu of several other requests. The reporter knew that I was in a hurry and was only there to comment on the State of the Union, but insisted on taking a disrespectful and cheap shot at the end of the interview, because I did not have time to speak off-topic. I verbally took the reporter to task and told him off, because I expect a certain level of professionalism and respect, especially when I go out of my way to do that reporter a favor. I doubt that I am the first Member of Congress to tell off a reporter, and I am sure I won’t be the last,” read the statement.
Nobody Wonders if this is the new norm: our elected power-inflated officials just have an overwhelming desire to pick up reporters and throw them off tall buildings and watch them splat.
Good thing there was a camera there.
This clearly was New York Union thug-like behavior towards a reporter. But then again, Obama had Larry Connors, a well established newsman here in St. Louis, fired after he interviewed Obama and later said that he was audited.
I’m so glad he didn’t have him thrown him off a 4-story building.
Nobody Knows The State of the Cory Union
Nobody Knows
Cory Remsburg is a true American hero. Ten tours in Afghanistan and then— brain damage by a terrorist. Minutes before Obama started talking about him at the end of his State of the Union speech tonight, the first lady was smiling and gently touching him proudly, as if he were a very dear friend of hers. It was the end of Obama’s speech, and Obama choose, to have the whole Congress turn, and applaud this poor man, who had suffered such a terribly injury.
And then Obama saluted him. Every military man in the United States probably felt just like I did at the moment….and they probably took out their anger on some video games, no doubt.
I just got sick to my stomach.
Michelle was smiling, and holding Cory arm—caressing the hero who stood next to her all night. I could feel the metaphor coming deep in my gut:
Obama’s said:
My fellow Americans, men and women like Cory remind us that America has never come easy. Our freedom, our democracy, has never been easy. Sometimes we stumble; we make mistakes; we get frustrated or discouraged. But for more than two hundred years, we have put those things aside and placed our collective shoulder to the wheel of progress – to create and build and expand the possibilities of individual achievement; to free other nations from tyranny and fear; to promote justice, and fairness, and equality under the law, so that the words set to paper by our founders are made real for every citizen.
Obama used the brain damaged Cory as a metaphor for America: We are in a coma, we’ve made mistakes, while our country is being destroyed before our eyes, we can actually come out of the coma and live to be in Obama’s utopia.
In other words, to Obama, America is brain-damaged. He knows America is in the worst shape it has ever been…but he refuses to take the blame. After what Obama has done to the military, it was hard to watch.
As the chamber was emptying, it was clear. After the show was over, the poor soldier was noticeably flushed in his glorious moment and turned to the first Lady for the recognition that she had gotten from her through-out the ordeal. After all, she was so tender, so warm, so affectionate, I’m sure the poor kid thought she really thought the world of him.
But she—just turned away. Completely ignored him. It was clear, she was finished with her job…and she wanted out of there. She couldn’t get away from him quick enough. (The camera got off that scene..quick.)
Look how Obama set this up:
I first met Cory Remsburg, a proud Army Ranger, at Omaha Beach on the 65th anniversary of D-Day. Along with some of his fellow Rangers, he walked me through the program – a strong, impressive young man, with an easy manner, sharp as a tack. We joked around, and took pictures, and I told him to stay in touch.
(Notice Obama wants you to know he went to Omaha)
He later said he went to visit him in the hospital. If he did, it was to be able to say he did in this speech.
Nobody Knows, but Nobody can guess that Obama’s only interest in this poor soldier was how he could use him as a prop in the ending of his speech. To pull the lie that Obama…IS a patriotic man.
The good news is: Obama’s speech was, as usual, full of lies, and the country is so bad, all he could do was muster up his talent as a speaker, and give a Rah, Rah Rah talk. And he knows it. So he starts out saying WE THE CITIZENS are the hero’s. As IF flattering us is going to make us feel any better. We got the same old liberal causes:
COLLEGE: The themes are the old and tried ones we’ve been hearing from him for years. He promised everyone needs to go to college….and then introduces a woman who has a degree, but can’t get a job…so therefore the government should give her more unemployment.
So, go to college, and get unemployment. And because all the blue collar jobs are gone, going to college is just a waste of time…so therefore Obama wants “skills” training.
INFRASTUCTURE: Yeah, we still need that.
ASIA PACIFIC TREATY: Will bring jobs. Just like NAFTA.
HUB: He’s going to build hubs. For technology. For NSA.MORE. Six at least. Can’t wait.
ENERGY: Obama is the reason we have gas, and oil— “And even as we’ve increased energy production, we’ve partnered with businesses, builders, and local communities to reduce the energy we consume.” (TAX, TAX, TAX)
CLIMATE CHANGE: “But the debate is settled. Climate change is a fact.”
IMMAGRATION: Amnesty
JOBS: Obama is going to somehow tell companies and colleges to take taxpayers money and create jobs. Obama will master all money, tell the companies and schools how to do everything. and he will do this with more money. He will force CEO to hire people.
SCHOOLS: Obama wants the kids in at 4. But after birth would be good too. And all schools need internet. (TAX, TAX) More money.
WOMEN: Just because women HAVE to drop out of the workforce and raise kids—that does not mean she can be paid less than the man who is working for that year and making connections, and continuing his job..no she needs to be paid equal even though she is not working. Woman are not paid the same as a man. It’s Hillary’s platform because the whole democratic side went nuts with applause. (They got the memo) That’s why GM has a woman CEO…it’s just so unfair. Tell me, is Hillary getting fair pay?
ECONOMY: “Give America a raise.” Obama’s answer to fixing the economy. Just give everybody money. And let people set up a MYIRA retirement fund: because that will give the government more money to take when it all collapse.
IRAN: Diplomacy works, and Hitler was a good guy.
Nothing on the NSA. Not much on gun violence: he’s taking care of that by declaring that half the population is mental, therefore cannot own a gun.
And My personal favorite…Obama wants to close Guantanamo— Because of the Constitution.
–because we counter terrorism not just through intelligence and military action, but by remaining true to our Constitutional ideals, and setting an example for the rest of the world.
Fancy that: Obama loves the Constitution when it applies to terrorists that want to murder us. They deserve our Constitution…us..not so much.
Boehner was perfect
And just so you know—more—
That’s why I believe this can be a breakthrough year for America. After five years of grit and determined effort, the United States is better-positioned for the 21st century than any other nation on Earth. (Right…)
As President, I’m committed to making Washington work better, and rebuilding the trust of the people who sent us here.(Sure)
Most importantly, Obama let everyone knows that HE is the King, so it doesn’t even matter anymore if our state of the union is pretty bad…he’s got a pretty good life:
But America does not stand still — and neither will I. So wherever and whenever I can take steps without legislation to expand opportunity for more American families, that’s what I’m going to do.”
“If he believes, and the Justice department believes, he has the authority to make progress, to strengthen the middle class, give people opportunity in this country, he will take it,” Podesta said.
That’s the plan. Just dictate.
So, it was clear tonight, Obama knows the country is doing really badly, but he knows nobody will impeach him, so he has three more years to have a grand time traveling the planet.
Unless of course, that brain-dead nation called America wakes up.
About
I am a nobody. If the different classes of America were color-coded, I would be in the yucky brown, one rung up from the bottom. I grew up in Naples, Florida and live near the Mississippi River now with my husband and two dogs. I am part of the slowly disappearing middle-class. I was a musician most of my life: drummer/singer/keyboards—but I retired before the plastic surgery flu hit. I have no degrees, which could be a good thing…depending on how you view our educational system. I do have three patents…but that really doesn’t make me a somebody. The one thing that is constant in my life is my OPINIONS, which i have more than perhaps even Carl Sagan could have imagined…mostly political. (yes…my ancestors were crabby buggers)
Hopefully other nobody’s will put their opinions on my site. But, if you happen to be a somebody, you’re more than welcomed to help out.
It’s my Nobody Opinion that Nobody’s Perfect, and Nobody Cares, that Nobody Knows why Nobody Wins, and when that happens, Nobody Wonders, why Nobody Flashes, why Nobody’s Fooled, but then Nobody remembers that Nobody ALWAYS Reports the truth.
