Older sis lives in DC and her power was off fifteen hours not bad. A time back during winter ice storm I think her power was off over a week.
I reminded her as she complained about not being able to flush at all as there was no water supply to the house. I told her to fill up the bath tubs for flushing that Brown stuff away. If needed possible drinking water too.
Now why didn't the poor stock up on can and water goods. Food stamps don't work with no power for the reader to send the transaction to the state or bank. Even frozen food would last about five days with the door closed.
Get that BBQ going.
Anger Grows at Response by Red Cross
By DAVID M. HALBFINGER
Published: November 2, 2012
The American Red Cross struggled on Friday to reassure beleaguered New York City residents that its disaster-relief efforts were at last getting up to speed, after the agency’s delayed arrival in devastated areas of Staten Island, Brooklyn and Queens drew intense criticism.
As of Friday, the Red Cross said, 25 of its emergency response vehicles — retrofitted ambulances each carrying 2,000 pounds of water, meals and snacks — had begun making their way through the hardest hit parts of the five boroughs. More were on the way, the agency promised.
The Red Cross had not yet opened the three temporary mobile kitchens that it announced on Thursday would be set up on Staten Island, in Riis Park in the Rockaways, and at the Aqueduct racetrack in Queens, the agency confirmed. The kitchens, which can produce 10,000 meals a day, would begin operating by Saturday, it said.

If the natives would behave I'm sure Obama would order a C-130 do a food and water drop along the beach, but I do think there would be riots for the water and food.
That Great Society of LBJ.

The vote was 53% to 47%... That's a mandate.

Chris Matthews of the tingly leg Obama worshiper is soooo glad that Hurricane Sandy happened. Really? Typical Liberal nut-job. Glad that all of those people lost everything, including their lives in some cases....just to keep that nut case in the White House?
This country is in a world of hurt now. Thanks Libs.
