Mitt Romney In GOP Debate: Shut Down Federal Disaster Agency, Send Responsibility To The States
A Romney official reaffirmed the former governor’s position Sunday evening in an email.
“Gov. Romney wants to ensure states, who are the first responders and are in the best position to aid impacted individuals and communities, have the resources and assistance they need to cope with natural disasters,” the Romney official said.
On November 9, 2011, Jefferson County filed for bankruptcy, the most expensive municipal bankruptcy ever in the US, at $4.2 billion, with debts of $3.14 billion relating to sewer work [due to corruption]. … As of May 2012, Jefferson County has slashed expenses and reduced employment of county government workers by more than 700.
Yeah. Alabama can totes handle its own disaster response. We can find the money, and none of our elected officials will run off with it. I have total confidence in this.
@cleolinda: Actually, [Romney] said, “And if you can go even further, and send it back to the private sector, that’s even better.” Mm.
@alliancesjr: Hurricane Sandy Disaster Relief: Brought to you by Taco Bell and Exxon-Mobil! Go for the Border (and then bring back oil)
@cleolinda: It’s the 2012 Pepsi Lexus Doritocane!

Yeah doing away with FIMA would be a bad idea … The concept that the Romney and Ryan believe that it’s immoral to spend...
