Still want FEMA gone, Mitt?
As the storm continues to pummel the northeast, although people of parties and independents hope for the best, it should be remembered what Mitt Romney said about FEMA last year. During a debate last year, Mitt said that the money should go to the states and let them decide how to spend the money and what to spend it on, and that even better than that would be for the money to go to businesses. So under Mitt's plan, there'd be no FEMA and states would simply fend for themselves. Think the people of Delaware and Rhode Island want to compete with New York and New Jersey for clean-up dollars? Because wouldn't every state be on their own and trying to get companies to help with the clean-up? And wouldn't each state fight for the right to run their state as they want? So some governors could dispense money liberally while others could penny-pinch and lower taxes on businesses? You may want FEMA gone, Mitt, but millions of people will be glad it's there after the storm. And hopefully they'll remember what you said about FEMA when they vote on November 6th.
