Flip Flop Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 The utter disdain that the left has for anyone other than them is never more evident than when they are castigating someone for helping others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NPRI personally don't care if he wants to keep campaigning. I don't see anything wrong with that. But don't hold the exact same event and call it something other than a campaign rally. It's just smarmy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duncja Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Say what you want, but there's a picture of him with toilet paper, canned food, items that those devastated by the hurricane would love to have. I helped in Gautier, MS after Katrina, and something as small as soup, or bottled water was a big deal for those people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats just smarmy I guess.Some reports say that his campaign bought $5,000 in supplies from Walmart that they then gave to people standing in line to "donate" at the event. It was a campaign event with the same campaign video and the same speakers they had already planned. Just keep campaigning and don't pretend it's something that its not.

You have a prepared, scheduled event, people are planning to BE there, so instead of getting on the stump and talking politics, YOU turn it into a relief rally. What the heck is WRONG with that? I would say, Obamas touring NJ is a stunt, taking valuable resources much needed on the ground away, and makes NO sense whatsoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While his opponent can occupy himself with being the president.I don't think that there would have been any right answer for Romney in that situation.
