Right now, after a tragedy, it might be better to point out that the federal govt took the money for this and now should pay it, until we straighten the system out, but he isn't wrong, on FEMA. It is just that one reason there aren't other programs now is the federal govt took taxes for this and pretends it is covered.

Yea, he spoke so well in both this one and Face The Nation, and my only gripe was this FEMA issue. I wish his answer had a bit more detail on what HE would do about it, if he feels the Feds shouldn't be involved. Didn't really seem like he gave much closure on it and in the very few times at some events when it was brought up, he is going to have to do a little better than the 'charity' thing. That just isn't going to cut it and is going to cause some serious flak going his way. You can't honestly think people are going to be thrilled with hearing that, when they have basically lost everything and expect random people to help them. This is an area people are afraid to go all in on with Ron, as they feel he is abandoning people on social/welfare issues and entitlements, and drifting way too far to the right.

Oh, dang. "In 08, soldiers used the koran for target practice and ronald reagan apologized"
I hope no viewers caught that, except ours.
If something bad happens, we will be blamed. If something good happens, we will get no credit. If nothing happens, we will be forgotten.
Bad answer on the hurricane victims question. The only thing people got out of it is that FEMA is bad and theres apparently nothing that he would do to help the people.
