Once again, Mitt Romney has decided that he wants to take both sides of an issue. And while this comes as no surprise to anyone who has watched him this last 18 months, yesterday's announcement had to be the most crass pandering attempt at getting votes that Mitt has ever done. And with all his pandering, that's saying quite a lot. Yesterday, Mitt said that under a Romney administration, FEMA would always have enough funding to do its job. Really? REALLY? So that wasn't you on the stage during a GOP debate that said that FEMA money needed to be block granted back to the states or better yet to private companies? That wasn't you who said that FEMA was an agency that needed to be scaled back as it isn't important enough to borrow money from China to keep open? It was you, Mitt, that said that the Ryan Budget is wonderful, although it cuts funding FEMA by 80%, right? Yes, I'm sure you feel very strongly about keeping FEMA strong and well-funded, since the day after the storm you were asked almost a dozen times about your stance on FEMA and you refused to answer any of the questions. No, you waited another full day and then sent out a press release by a spokesperson rather than making your own statement.
I hope that the American people can see through your pandering and refuse to vote for you. But if you do get elected, I hope before you take the oath of office you can get to a hospital and can get a spine transplant, since yours is obviously very weak.
