B. Hussein Obama’s Katrina – Kentucky still suffering as of Feb 7th, 2009
The Kentucky ice storm is still making life hard for residents while Hussein Obama does nothing about it, and continues to party and fear monger the stupid people into buying his porkulus bull sh.. Anyway check out some e-mails from Kentucky residents to Michelle Malkin:
I live in Marion, KY (Western KY). It is our 11th day without power or water. We have a well so when the power goes off…there goes the water. We get water from our neighbors. We have a generator so decided to plug up the computer to see what was going on.
The National Guard is here and is suppose to be checking on every home in Crittenden County. Big joke, we haven’t seen anyone in 11 days!!! There is very little communication except for what we get from our neighbors. Our town finally got power late Thursday so the stores can start back up.
Our town is a rural town and the unemployment rate is very high. People have spent more money than they have just trying to survive. I am sure the government will not even offer help to those individuals. We have heard that FEMA might help with the debris removal but that could take months.
Reader Julee e-mails:
Thank you for paying attention to this situation. I am amazed at how little coverage this is getting from the MSM.
I live in a small town in Muhlenberg county in Western Kentucky and work in Hopkins County. These two counties are still suffering major power outages.
I count myself very lucky because our power was out for only four days. Many people in both counties have been without power since Tuesday of last week. Those who live out in the country may be without electricity for up to a month abd many of those who are without power are also without water and phone service.
The Kentucky National Guard is here in force and has been going door to door to see if people need anything. I have also seen power crews from Indiana, Ohio, Alabama, Georgia, and New York. Both Muhlenberg and Hopkins counties are swarming with them, and they are a beautiful sight.
One thing I haven’t seen is FEMA. There are signs on the Western Kentucky Parkway that say “FEMA trucks exit here”, but the trucks themselves have yet to be seen. They don’t really seem to be missed though.
Most of the people around here seem to have a pretty positive attitude and are taking care of themselves. Many people have generators and/or kerosene heaters, and those who don’t are staying with family, friends, or in motels.
Everyone that I have encountered has a pretty positive attitude. They’re taking care of themselves and trying to help anyone they can.
Thanks again for thinking of us.
And reader Tim from Paducah adds:
What is impressive about this disaster in West Kentucky is the response of the people. Yes we do have power workers from other states helping our own workers restore power but forthe the most part people are just making it happen and not waiting around for the government, particularly the federal government, to help them because they know it’s not coming.
Yet no matter how inspiring the display of independence of Western Kentuckians to take care of business without the government liberals just can’t resist bringing politics into it by taking a cheap shot at President Bush. Here is an example from one of our local bloggers (Paducah Ice Storm Update and a Challenge from Sweden – link):
“Of the rapidity and effectiveness of this President’s response, in stark contrast to the Katrina victims who are still waiting.”
Excuse me, the messiah most merciful President Obama hasn’t done a damn thing and I resent the hell out of anyone saying he has assisted in this disaster. The excellent response to this disaster has everything to do wih the character and the spirit of Western Kentuckians and nothing to do with anyone in Washington; but how would a Northeastern liberal artist relocation program transplant know anything about character and spirit.

Out here in California we do not need nor want FEMA
We take care of our own, Republican bedwetters cannot take care of themselves.
Do you want the president to come out and clear your gutters?
Robert Oconnor seems to have easily forgotten every time Mexifornia had it hand out during the floods, earthquakes, fires, during the dubya and clinton years. How quickly liberals forget. Just like with their paying of taxes.
