to deliver food and water.

I guess the generators labeled "FEMA" and a location headed into NY/NJ weren't there to help. :rollem:

No matter how hard any group works someone will find something to complain about.

Also the wait for gas in Watermill on eastern LI is only 15min tonight.

Politicizing natural disasters.....pathetic and shameful.

Just tellin it as the folks on the ground, who are affected, see and live it.
This is the new and improved FEMA, water is the essential of life.

Gas will get better, but it's not doing the folks from NJ and NYC any good
now to drive to LI to get their gas.

Obama stated yesterday that everything was in place if the State and Local
Officals carried it all out. So that lets him off the hook for any failures, can't
blame him. :doh:

The words of Obama, "vote to get revenge", is shameful.

As a Christian that word shouldn't even be in his vocabulary.

And I'm telling you exactly what I saw going through that area, not second hand knowledge.

Makes me glad that you saw a 15 min wait for gas in LI.

However, that dosen't help the millions of others who like myself waited 2 and 1/2 hours on line to get a limited $30 of gas for my kids generators and my truck
at $4.52 a gallon.
Like I said, gas lines will get better, but for people without it now, and a new $40 limit and cold nights it means nothing at this point.
