44844. concerned - 10/31/2012 1:52:47 AM The truth is this Maureen was granted a divorce settlement that included Staples stock worth several million dollars at the time, and she promptly sold most of it, then wanted a redo after it jumped in value by about 10 times afterwards. What a nasty lying vindictive creature. A natural Ob☭ma supporter. 44845. judithathome - 10/31/2012 6:03:56 AM For instance, MSNBC ought to man up at least to the point where they admit that Romney is doing some good with his disaster relief efforts.
Are you daft? Even the Red Cross today put out a statement that they are NOT solicting foodstuffs, only donations of funds...they want money. Romeny used a pre-planned campaign event in Ohio to boost his image by asking people to bring canned food and donate it...meaning he can now call this a food/disaster relief drive instead of what it was: a poltical event.
Let me ask you this: all those people in New Jersey and New York who are without power or under water...how will they utilize canned goods collected by Romney in OHIO today???? Not to mention even GET them since most of the roads are underwater....
Mitt Romney is as fake as his "disaster relief" event...he's FAKE.

Someone could make some money if they bet on Romney, and he won.
I don't think he will win, but he could. 44847. Wombat - 10/31/2012 4:28:58 PM Apparently the Romney campaign was concerned that there wouldn't be enough "contributions" to their event, so they bought $5000 worth of nonperishable food and baby products to give the caameras a better impression of the event. 44848. Wombat - 10/31/2012 4:31:30 PM It's fun when Concerned gets desperate to the point of incoherence. 44849. concerned - 10/31/2012 7:42:48 PM Re. 44845 -
You Romney bashers are the incoherent ones - seldom have I ever encountered such an obdurately spiteful refusal to see the merit in his actions and such purely partisan meanminded poormouthing of Romney suspending his campaign for this relief effort.
The Red Cross was accepting donations at the Romney event. How could any person have missed that?
Here's a photo with Romney at the event standing right in front of a display showing the Red Cross and 'text redcross to 90999'.
Btw, I have never heard Lefties complain about food donations before - they sponsor food donation drives for disaster relief all the time. And so what if the Romney campaign paid for some food? That's a positive.
Also, they can have all of the food flown to the disaster sites for immediate distribution within an hour or two at any time. What good will money do in that case if all the food repositories at the site are shut down, depleted or damaged? You Lefties are so narrowminded and craven, it's just amazing. Why don't you Lefties use your brains and try not sounding so stupid, at least?
The fact is Romney made 0bama look like what he is, a purely politically motived a-hole who deliberately let the embassy personnel at Benghazi die, then lied to try to cover it up and who now is sitting doing nothing effective during the Sandy disaster.

44851. concerned - 10/31/2012 8:30:21 PM Betting on a November surprise? 44852. concerned - 10/31/2012 8:36:10 PM Guess the Benghazi stand down order is quite the hot potato in the 0bama administration now.
If nobody comes clean by November 6, it'll time for the voter to stop the buck by standing 0bama down. 44853. concerned - 10/31/2012 8:36:39 PM Guess the Benghazi stand down order is quite the hot potato in the 0bama administration now.
If nobody comes clean by November 6, it'll be time for the voter to stop the buck by standing 0bama down.
44854. judithathome - 10/31/2012 8:44:19 PM Con'd, the Red Cross released a press statement yesterday stating that food and clothing donations are less helpful than money at this time...it's not "lefties" claiming that, it's the ORGANIZATION. I think they might know a bit more about what is needed during a disaster than you or I do....
And you know damned good and well that had some Obama campaign-related flunky set up a fake donation event like Romeny's team did with that food drive, you'd be stroking out railing about how evil they were for staging a cheap publicity stunt. 44855. concerned - 10/31/2012 8:49:54 PM Nothing 'fake' about it. And Romney is not a Red Cross employee, last time I checked, so I'll bet that with his long standing humanitarian record of donating millions of dollars to worthy causes, he has other avenues other than the Red Cross to help the disadvantaged.
That making any kind of sense to you? No? Yes? Maybe? 44856. concerned - 10/31/2012 8:52:48 PM And you know damned good and well ...
Actually, I know nothing of the sort. What I do know is the Romney is the only one making an effort on such a timely basis, at least.
I remember you all hating on Bush over not pushing FEMA to act within one day after Katrina. Well, now 0bama IS Bush with Sandy. Times a'wasting - better start hating on 0bama now. 44857. concerned - 10/31/2012 9:11:48 PM Checking...checking....checking....
No Sandy Federal Relief efforts so far........
Checking...checking....checking....
44858. judithathome - 10/31/2012 9:54:08 PM so I'll bet that with his long standing humanitarian record of donating millions of dollars to worthy causes, he has other avenues other than the Red Cross to help the disadvantaged.
Most of his CHARITABLE donations go to the Mormon Church. I'm sure they need a lot of help supporting all those extraneous wives but even so....
44859. judithathome - 10/31/2012 9:55:40 PM And you have no idea what YOU are talking about...Obama has a signed order to FEMA for Chris Christie before the winds fell below 50 MPH. 44860. concerned - 10/31/2012 11:04:56 PM JAH - you obviously don't have any idea how large New Jersey is compared to the total area damaged by Sandy.
That fat tub of suet Christie may be happy, but how about Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New York State, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine? Where's their FEMA assistance?
I'd call that at least a 98% fail by 0bama so far. 44861. judithathome - 10/31/2012 11:13:12 PM You tell me...where is it? You don't know, do you? He may have already signed on to help in every one of those states...unlike Romney, a Presidentr doesn't have to check in with his publicity team before doing something good. 44862. concerned - 10/31/2012 11:20:17 PM And, btw, FEMA has not actually *done* anything but open a website where NJ victims can apply for compensation two days after Sandy hit. This is from FEMA's web site.
Contrast that with FEMA having offered assistance to Louisiana even before Katrina hit (it was turned down) and that FEMA actually evacuated the majority of the New Orleans victims.
Let's compare and contrast: Sandy - FEMA opens a website two days after the storm hits just for New Jersey and Katrina- FEMA is interacting with state officials before the hurricane makes landfall and actually evacuates most of the victims.
It's obvious where FEMA did the better job, and it is not with Sandy. 44863. judithathome - 10/31/2012 11:52:56 PM Well, 48 hours after the fact, your boy Romney...who hasn't answered press questions in 3 weeks...has issued a statement saying if he is elected, FEMA will have the money it needs to operate. This...from the man who vowed up until today that he would stop funding FEMA.
