“Lastly, as I watch the news I am concerned about some deterioration of civility caused by stress and the loss of services after Hurricane Sandy. Mediating disputes should not be something the police and emergency services should be dealing with at this point in time. Communities grow stronger by how we treat each other in times of need and distress. It’s important that we continue to do what Ridgewood does best, and that is to watch over each other and help each other. Please be careful, monitor your children and watch over your neighbors.”

When Fishbein talks about “lack of civility”, he’s no doubt thinking about the teabagging douchebags who hang out here on the yellow blog.

What about FEMA? Is that “necessary government” or “extravagant government”?
Mitt Romney cannot make up his mind on this issue.
On Jnue 13, 2011, in response to a question about federal disaster relief, Romney said, “Every time you have an occasion to take something from the federal government and give it back to the states, that’s the right direction. If you can go even further and give it back to the private sector, that’s even better.”
Two days ago, Romney said, “I believe that FEMA plays a key role in working with states and localitiies to prepare for and respond to natural disasters. As president, I will ensure FEMA has the funding it needs to fulfill its mission.”
What a difference a hurricane makes for the Great Flip-Flopper!

Conservatives: please stick do your principles and do not accept ANY government aid. Remember, you are “rugged individualists” who are not dependent on government.
Also, call Gov Christie and tell him to stop co-operating with President Obama. Fraternizing with the enemy only helps the socialist and threatens our liberty.
Thank you and have a good day.
