Subject: Re: If You Want to be Mad About FEMA Spending
ptheland: One last try by me. Why does it matter? I didn't dispute your telling of the incidents.

He said why upthread: "whatever FEMA is doing is not helping them, not reaching them. Onsite face to face Government aid will certainly help if and when it actually arrives."

The republicans want this to be an albatross to hang around Harris's neck. They want Americans to believe that what will become the second deadliest hurricane to make landfall in the United States since the 1950s is a simple fix despite it hitting hundreds of miles of the most remote and inaccessible terrain over several states.

FEMA is pouring resources into the most heavily populated, hardest hit areas that stand the best chance of helping the most people the fastest but bighairymike wants to know why those same resources aren't going toward helping three people living thirty miles from anyone else.

In short, this is a blame game.
