Scottie Press Conf-"Zero tolerance looting/there're ways to get food/water
Is he kidding?

Zero tolerance for people "looting" water and food, when people have received none from official authorities and are dying for water and food?

Sorry, his statement we are doing all in our power isn't good enough.

water for 4 days and see how hungry and thirsty he gets.

20. And what do you tell the children?
They will have nightmares the rest of their lives. Little kids seeing dead bodies 24/7. Maybe their own family members bodies. Worse by far, than the kids finding out about Clinton's dalliances, with a consenting adult troll.

6. He has lots of natural spring water in his office fridge
Apparently he can't imagine why the refugees can't just open their fridges and enjoy a cold bottle.

7. But your majesty, the people have no bread
"No bread? Then let them eat cake!"

Marie Antoinette looks like fucking Mother Teresa next to these ogres.

9. How about talking about why FEMA has suspended rescue efforts, Scott
Instead of focusing on people who are taking stuff from Wal Mart. How are you going to deal with the few who are shooting the rescue workers?

13. They are doing everything in their power.
Obviously, they no longer have any power.

Fifteen minutes ago I heard the reporter on coast to coast telling Ron Reagan that she has seen no help. Nothing. Nada. Zero. In four days.

18. If one looter is shot, then that blood is on Bush's hands!
They need to concentrate on saving people, not protecting property.

How immoral can this administration get? I just want to line them all up and do a face-to-face slap of 'em all.
