Obama Will Mobilize Email List to Help with Gustav's Aftermath

ABC News' Sunlen Miller Reports: Senator Obama told reporters today in Lima, OH that he plans to mobilize his network of volunteers and donors to help with Hurricane Gustav’s aftermath.

Obama said that they’ll wait over the next 48 hours to see what resources are most needed, “It becomes a question of what people on the ground need and once we determine that then we can activate our email list of a couple of million people who want to give back.”

Senator McCain and Sarah Palin are visiting a hurricane response center in Jackson Mississippi to learn about preparations. Senator Obama told reporters that at this time he has no plans to visit the region because of the resources that would be taken away from the hurricane in providing for a visit.

“The thing that I am always concerned about is in the middle of the storm is whether we are drawing resources away from folks on the ground, because the secret service and various security requirements sometimes it pulls police and fire and other departments away from concentrating on the job.”

Obama said that it is “fine” for McCain to want to find out what is going on in the region, “I am assuming that where he went that wasn’t an issue and we are going to try to stay clear of the area until things have settled down and then we will probably try to figure out how we can be as helpful as possible.”

I see 5,000 zealots descending en masse on the scene of a disaster refusing to yield to the already coordinated state and federal authorities all claiming their own discordant efforts are what the hapless people really need.

I wonder what Sean Penn's DU name is?

I swear to Christ that Obama is reminding me more and more of the idiot group manager I used to work for in my last job.  Says the right phrases and catchwords but has no ****ing idea what they mean, and so incompetent he couldn't run pantyhose.

No, but that e-mail list will surely be used to buy lots and lots of carbon credits for "Teh Wun"...

Lots of pictures of hands and white healing light will be on their way to the Gulf region.  :whatever:

they'll give nothing.  BHO already got it all.  its documented fact, libs are far less charitable.
My fellow Americans, there is nothing audacious about hope. Hope is what makes people buy lottery tickets instead of paying the bills. Hope is for the old gals feeding the slots in Atlantic City. It destroys the inner-city kid who quits school because he hopes he'll be a world-famous recording artist.

What's the difference between Sarah Palin and Barack Obama?

One is a well turned-out, good-looking, and let's be honest, pretty sexy piece of eye-candy.

The other kills her own food.
