Sandyism = Kinder, gentler 9/11 Bullshit (http://www.democraticunderground.com/10023996316)

It is the same general shit, but with less of the overt Christianist racism.

"Remember how you felt."

Defining governance in terms of catastrophe.

Lizard brain appeal to trust in authority.

I can keep you safe.

The Spirit of Sandy? Really?? It's like something from Idiocracy! It is appalling.

Had it not been for the preceding political/social horrors or 9/11ism and Bushism and Giulianism, etc.. the Christie thing would have been seen as a singularly classless, vulgar, cynical exploitation of disaster and misery.

But since Christie didn't actually propose invading a hail-storm to teach hurricanes a lesson it was accepted as somehow reasonable.

Defining demagoguery down.

That's one abortion I think ...no, I'm sure, I could agree with.

WTF?  It was Christie's embrace of Obama after Sandy that also helped get Obama reelected. Of course many of those left homeless by Sandy are still suffering.

That's a pretty irrelevant complaint. What do incumbent politicians do if not point to events and say "Here's what I did for you..."? It's like this primitive just fell off the turnip truck.

The thread sank like a stone.

None of his fellows Proglodytes could figure it out either.

Whining about bigotry with bigotry (and stupidity) on display in first sentence...

- Once Christie finally embraces his inner Democrat and switches parties, you will love the man for defining his campaign by his response to last year's storm.
