The liberal/mainstream media has always been vocal when it comes to their hatred of Republican presidents or anybody in the spotlight whose political beliefs lean to the right. Their weaponizing of the First Amendment is both smothering and, at times, downright eclipsing for any Conservative trying to make a name for themselves. While you can’t always rely on them to tell the truth, you can always rely on them to keep double standards. As is the case with the presidential reaction to the recent flooding in Louisiana.
Do you remember back during Bush’s time in office, when Hurricane Katrina had left the good people of Louisiana in a dire state? Bush, instead appearing in the state itself to let the victims know the government was there for them, chose to fly over them and never set food near the disaster area itself. The media had a field day with that. In fact, they would continue to write about it well into the end of Bush’s time in office.
Fast forward eight years and once again Louisiana is in dire need of help. The recent flooding, which has killed thirteen people and forced thirty thousand to evacuate their homes has been garnering national attention for the past several days, but what hasn’t seemed to garner national attention is the lack of attention President Obama is paying to the situation. Apparently, his two week vacation in Martha’s Vineyard can’t be disrupted to visit the flood victims. Yet, the media has been silent on the matter.
How about that double standard?
One American voice, however, hasn’t been silent on the matter. Find out whose on the next page.
I hate to tell you this, but Breitbart is as far from a “reliable” source as you can get. And incidentally, the governor of Louisiana asked the President NOT to come, yet, so they wouldn’t have to divert resources and hinder the rescue efforts in the exact way that Trump’s presence did. Trump’s staged photo op is about as legitimate as Paul Ryan’s staged photo op of washing already clean dishes at a soup kitchen. Trump is playing you like an out-of-tune violin, but your hearing aid has dead batteries, so you can’t recognize it,
Just like if Hillary gets elected, there will be more debt, less jobs, more government hand outs so that they own your life, more crumbling infrastructure, less respect from allies and enemies, more retarded trade deals that kill our economy, and we can all sit around on our asses and wait for the government to feed us….. Until China wants the trillions of dollars they’ve loaned us back, then I guess we can eat each other! You are a moron!
Woo wee somebody is ugly scared. It’s ok Eric L Runion we don’t expect any more or less.
At least , the people of Louisiana know how much HIllary and Barrach care about them/. At least Trump did show up and bring food water blankets and compassion.
Eric L Runion – You are WRONG, he went to see schools and churches and donated! What have you done? I live in Louisiana. Trump brought a truck load of water, blankets, food, needed bathroom items among other supplies and different kinds of toys for restless and displaced children! He changed his schedule to bring these much needed supplies to hurting people who have lost everything! POTUS has done almost nothing for our great state! A lot of people from Louisiana are very unhappy with our Governor that seems to favor POTUS, right now! Trump did not want a “photo op” with Edwards, he came to help our families! Edwards did NOT tell him not to come and actually welcomed him, Edwards just could not take time to take pics with him! Trump did make a $1,000,000.00 donation that I pray is used in our state! Ted Cruz had me when he first started running but I have been backing Trump for almost a year now and also am so glad he picked Pence for VP! Do your homework people….The RIGHT CHOICE FOR 2016 POTUS IS TRUMP ONLY!
You Clinton supporters need to watch CLINTON CASH on YouTube and also look up Clinton Haiti while you are there! In 2010 they had a 7.0 earthquake and about 5 BILLION $’s was collected from around the world and Clinton Foundation were the organizers of the money, if I am correct. Those poor people of Haiti STILL do NOT HAVE RUNNING WATER in their homes and take sewage out in buckets. Cholera has hit their nation in 2015 and killed many. There is a complex of beautiful homes with swimming pools built for the contractors but NOT THE HAITI’S. It is horrible conditions they are living in. You want a good story to write, work on that story! Oh, I forgot, the Clinton supporters can’t handle the TRUTH!
Eric L Runion: Uou need to bend over and have someone pull your head out. For your information, your very own liberal CNN (Clinton News Network) showed this video: http://conservativepost.com/louisiana-governor-praises-trump-pence-for-visiting-flood-damage/ …The Louisana Governor was originally misquoted!
Hitlery and Obama are fans of the Muslim countries and appear far-sighted and the home people are useful idiots.
orrupt CNN is, by doing this, Negate voter fraud. Wear RED at the polls when voting Trump. It’s a growing grass roots movement born by social media’s ability to share ideas. This needs to get to Donald Trump, so he can announce it. They won’t be able to refute an entire country clad in RED come voting day. Spread the RED!
You do not have any boasting, Jason, if you are stupid enough to vote for Clinton. Better off just keeping your opinion to yourself.
Killary needed the rest though ! Oblabla was his usual ” just here for the party” self.Also its the south so he doesn’t care.
