Louisville kids went back to school today. National Guardsmen saved the life of a couple whose furnace malfunctioned yesterday. The Guard is trying to knock on every door–the couple said they felt dizzy, and the Guardsmen’s CO detector registered fatal levels of buildup.

Thanks to all who are giving their money, time, and effort to help those in need.

Just a thot. OK got socked with a freeze just before Christmas 07. Didn’t see much, if any, of FEMA either. Mostly Red Cross, National Guard and ordinary Joes doing what ever to help each other thru. Also had help from TX, AR and others to restore power.

Granted, OK may be sparse population-wise, but in terms of real-estate, we got hammered pretty good with power out for as long as 20 days in some areas.

Maybe, it’s not just the One, but the fact that FEMA simply doesn’t do Cold Weather disasters. In that case, no point in Obambi talking about the current situation, as it would only serve to highlight that here’s a situation where “Mr. Proactive” got caught with his pants down — so to speak.

Back To School Barack: Learn To Act Presidential 101…

For a big man, President Barack Obama sure has a small man’s complex. The Anchoress has written repeatedly about Barack Obama’s smallness, his “lack of generosity”. Here she says about Obama’s treatment of the Iraqi voting triumph: How awful and…..

Here in KY we for voted McCain by over 16 points. We aren’t holding our breath and waiting for the Messiah to come and help us.

Is it mostly western KY? I have family in the eastern part of the state – Winchester, Mt. Sterling – and I have no idea what’s going on with them…

Amen to my fellow Kentuckians posting here – especially Rightwingmom, a fellow Louisvillian.

Thanks to everyone who has sent prayers, good vibes, and a few dollars. Our household was fortunate (we made our house available to friends and family without power, but they managed otherwise), but there are still so many that aren’t.

It’s Kentucky’s own fault that the feds are not falling all over themselves to provide assistance. They obviously have not gotten with the diversity program. If there were more welfare dependent minorities in the state, obummer himself would have visited the area (along with every other publicity seeking, hand wringing, scum pol) and proclaimed it a “disaster area of historcial proportions”. Of course the gov’t will have the answer to that problem. Next wave of refugees from some 3rd world country will call KY home. You guys are better off not getting help from the feds. Payback is h*ll.

Sounds like these great citizens are doing for themselves what needs to be done.

Hear, hear!

I’m thinking Obama doesn’t want to leave his warm, snuggly office to go and visit a disaster area like KY. Of course, if the disaster was in a warmer climate, I’m sure he’d find some other excuse to be conspicuously absent.
