Obama: Midwest storms devastating, heartbreaking

President Barack Obama says he will travel to Missouri on Sunday to meet with people affected by the devastating tornadoes there.

The president said Tuesday he wants Midwesterners whose lives were upended by the deadly storms last weekend to know that the federal government will use all the resources at its disposal to help them recover and rebuild.

Dear Lord!  Don’t those poor people have enough problems right now?

“I want everybody in Joplin, everybody in Missouri, everybody in Minnesota, everybody across the Midwest to know that we are here for you,” the president said in London on day two of his four-country tour.

“The American people are by your side. We’re going to stay there until every home is repaired, until every neighborhood is rebuilt, until every business is back on its feet.”

If he’s serious, then he needs to keep the flippin’ federal government OUT OF THE WAY!

    What would help would be for OB to stop with the Native American raindances. Keep your impulses in check, we don’t need more rain. :)

    Good luck with the knee stuff.

    Welll, that is what hinders are for.

    I guess that is why God gave little folks such big ones.
