I haven't heard any criticism at all about the emergency response to this mini-disaster. One pathetic/funny thing I saw in the LA Times:

"The Associated Press reported that a 46-year-old man was missing in Chattanooga, Tenn., after he tried to swim across a flooded ditch on a $5 bet.

Looks like "we" are too caught up in healthcare and acorn debates to focus on other stuff right now. Well, healthcare, anyway.

There will be people to take care of those flood victims. Good people always come through, you know, who don't need to be cheered on to do their stuff. It'll be available online.

Obama's response to this has been exceptional.

Want to talk disasters- George Bush and Katrina, gun fire, people abandoning patients in hospitals, people stuck in a stadium with no food and no real response for two days. TWO DAYS LATE????

Another Bush fuck up!

Doesn't look like obama's done shit for these hopeless hillbillies.

From http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090922/ap_on_re_us/us_heavy_rain_southeast:

"I'm toast," said Penny Freeman, who moved into a first-floor unit five days ago. "I don't have a place to stay. I'm losing my mind right now."

"Washed-out roads and flooded freeways around metro Atlanta caused commuters headaches. Gov. Sonny Perdue asked President Barack Obama to declare a state of emergency in Georgia.

"At one of the largest shelters at the Cobb County Civic Center, Shirley Jones sat with others on green cots, chatting about the fate of their homes. Around them, children played games, oblivious to the destruction.

"'When I saw the water rising, it brought back bad memories,' said Jones, who lived in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina. The 72-year-old had moved to the area two months ago.

"Jones said rescue efforts this time went much more smoothly. A boat retrieved her from a family member's house.

"Before being evacuated, Cordell Albert and her husband Christopher moved their valuables to the second floor of their Powder Springs home. The couple waded through knee-deep water before a raft picked them up.

"'I feel lost,'" she said. "'I feel homeless.'"
