Usually, after a disaster strikes the United States, some bible thumper (travelin' preacher, fanatical evangelist, maniacal mega-church leader, etc...) issues a statement proclaiming that the disaster was Gods way of striking back against all the evil doers.
I figure that sometime within the next few days, we will see a story about that because, well, lets face it, those people are all idiots.

Five days. Five freakin' days.
The government and the meteorologists spent five days talking about this storm.
They told everyone it was huge and dangerous. They said it was going to bring high winds and massive amounts of rain. They also said that anyone living near the shore needed to get out because it had a storm surge that was bigger than they had ever seen in a storm heading for the northeast.
"Get out now", they said.
The state governments of New Jersey and New York issued mandatory evacuation orders for the shoreline but did these people listen? Nooooooo! They didn't listen. They said, "Bah, those people don't know nothing. I'm stayin' right here and riding it out."
Well, I have only one thing to say to those people: "You can just shut the hell up, go back to your flooded houses and 'ride it out' in silence because no one wants to hear from you."
Idiots.

If I hear one more politician make the statement, "We shouldn't politicize the devestation from the storm", I'm gonna personally walk up to him or her and write "hypocrit" on his or her forehead with a Sharpie®. They are all politicizing it. Every one of them.
Barack Obama is proving that he is an "effective leader" by having his picture taken while sitting in a mock-up command center.
Willard Romney is proving he is a "compassionate leader" by having his picture taken at "fund raisers" being held at of his campaign stops.
This storm is what is known to most campaign managers as a "God Send". It gives them the opportunity to showcase their candidate before the public and get a lot of free press.
Personally, I don't mind that they do it I just hate when they say they aren't doing it while accusing their opponents of doing it. It's hypocritical of them and just more proof that politicians are lying sacks of weasel crap.
