Hoodoo Highway

You Be The Judge

Arkansas was hit by tornadoes in late February, destroying the town of Dumas and leaving over 150 persons without homes and 800 without jobs. This tiny town in DeSha county is not a goldmine town. Jobs are scarce and times are hard there. Arkansas has a newly elected Governor, who is a Democrat. Arkansans got tired of the Repubs and changed back to how they used to be, a Democrat state.

Alabama and Georgia also had storm devastation. They both have Republican Governors. FEMA officials, the President and others immediately visited the area and declared it a disaster area. Allowing millions in federal aid to flood the area to help the citizens.

Arkansas, on the other hand, got no visits (fine with us if the chimp never comes around) and was denied disaster status because, FEMA says, the state can handle the storm damage???

Now let's see, let me add this up. 2 states, 2 repubs, a visit from the muckety muck freakshow in DC and they get emergency relief. 1 state, same situation, a Democrat governor and no visit from the DC destroyers of America and no emergency relief. Go figure.... couldn't be because we booted the Repubs now would it? Surely this administration that espouses chrisitan ideals and values (as a farce in my opinion) would do something so vengence filled and un-christian like?
