Tornado Victims to Get Help from Big Government, Not Invisible Sky Wizard

As usual, the freakazoids are seeking help from their imaginary ghost friends, and will give credit to their invisible sky wizards for the actual help that will come from the federal government.

Thirty-nine people dead in five states; 21 of them in Kentucky. The next hardest-hit state is Indiana, with 13 deaths.

Residents of West Liberty in Morgan County, and those in Menifee, Laurel and Kenton Counties should be on their knees thanking their Democratic Governor Steve Beshear for seeking federal disaster aid from President Barack Obama, and on their knees again thanking Democratic President Barack Obama for being a big enough person not to hold their stupid votes for repugs against them, because he will send them the millions of dollars in help that only the federal government can provide.

Speaking of which, I notice that Kentucky's U.S. Senators, Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul, and the Representatives of the stricken counties, Geoff Davis and Hal Rogers, repugs all, are dead silent on the subject of federal aid for their suffering constituents. Either they will stay silent, pretending that federal largesse just fell from the sky, or they will set new standards in hypocrisy saying that this spending is necessary but not spending to create jobs or make sure Kentuckians have enough to eat and basic health care.

Remember that at the voting booth, Kentuckians: your repug federal officials don't want your tax dollars spent on anything other than making already filthy rich people and corporations even filthier richer.
