| In Michael Bloomberg's Manhattan, just as in Barack Obama's Washington, D.C., the political and media elite seem to think that talking about something, holding a press conference or televising a party amounts to doing something to solve a problem. The residents of Staten Island, desperately in need of food and power generators three days after Hurricane Sandy hit, know differently. So far, neither the Red Cross nor the supposedly "new and improved" Federal Emergency Management Administration have provided them with much assistance, if any.

So you mean to tell me that Democrats/Hollywood are “happy to have a party with black people drowning”?
Seems to me a certain Yahoo News Chief (David Chalian) chastised Republicans for parting at the convention while a measly tropical storm sputtered through FL. Where is this news chief now and why doesn't he speak up about this? Oh wait, he's now at Politico. Let's see...yep, just as expected, there are no stories about this on Politico's web site.
The shock!

Where are Sean Penn, his photographer, his biographer, his videographer, and their little boat when we need them?

Limousine liberalism. That is what we call in today in America, but it seems to be ubiquitous phenomenon observed whenever a small group of human beings gains economic or political power over the rest. The Soviets did it, the Nazis did it, the Chicoms do it, it happens everywhere there is an elite in power. The New Class considers itself more than entitled to its emoluments. The constant profession and reiteration of socially progressive ideology is exhausting work. Practitioners require and deserve their recreation. All citizens are equal, but some are more equal than others.

Why do I have the feeling that the Federal response to Katrina was far superior to the Federal response to Sandy? Maybe because Zip doesn't have a clue as to what to do and as usual, the press will cover for him.

I agree with #4. These limosine liberals should just write big checks to relief organizations then shut up and get out of the way. But no, they have to party on even at the expense of those they are supposedly trying to help.

Staten Island is being punished for being too republican. Obama did the same thing to Texas in last year's fires.

It looks like the Staten Island folks have their event catered by the Occupy Wall Street crowd. Is this what you wanted? Now you know that the left has no principles.

Former Rep. Anthony Weiner, whose career in public life came to an abrupt end when he sent lewd pictures to a college student on Twitter, jumped back into politics on Wednesday by announcing a bid for mayor of New York City. “Look, I’ve made some big mistakes and I know I’ve let a lot of people down,” the Democrat said in a 2-minute video announcing his bid. “But I’ve also learned some tough lessons. I’m running for mayor because I’ve been fighting for the middle class and those struggling to make it for my entire life.

The dam protecting the IRS scandal began to crack today when Lois Lerner, the IRS official who announced, and apologized for, the improper singling out of conservative-leaning organizations by IRS employees under her command, announced through her criminal defense lawyer that she will not testify as scheduled tomorrow before the House Oversight Committee. Rather, she will assert her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. This marks an enormous milestone in the IRS investigation. It can now be taken as more or less established that crimes were committed by Obama administration employees. Lerner’s lawyer tried to minimize the significance

The wheels came off the Obama administration yesterday. We learned of a startling assault on freedom of the press by the Department of Justice, following the revelation last week of the unprecedented information-gathering foray by that department against The Associated Press. Then, a few minutes later, the Justice Department’s inspector general released a report declaring that the US attorney in Arizona used the leak of a confidential memo to try to discredit a whistleblower in the notorious “gun-walking” scandal known as Fast and Furious (which got two federal agents killed). The leak was called “egregious.”

WASHINGTON – A top IRS official in the division that reviews nonprofit groups will invoke the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions before a House committee investigating the agency’s improper screening of conservative nonprofit groups. Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening – or why she didn’t reveal it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor 3rd. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight committee Wednesday.

House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa said embattled IRS official Lois Lerner waived her Fifth Amendment rights and will be hauled back to appear before his panel again. The California Republican said Lerner’s Fifth Amendment right to avoid self-incrimination was voided when she gave an opening statement this morning denying any wrongdoing and professing pride in her government service. “When I asked her her questions from the very beginning, I did so so she could assert her rights prior to any statement,” Issa told POLITICO. “She chose not to do so — so she waived.”

Former Democratic National committee chairman Howard Dean considers the controversy over Benghazi a “joke” and “silly.” “Benghazi is a laughable joke,” Dean proclaimed twice in a discussion with Republican National Committee communications chairman Sean Spicer last week. “With all due respect, governor, when four Americans die serving this country, that’s not a joke, sir,” Spicer responded. “Oh, stop it,” said Dean. The former Democratic presidential candidate also said that there were “no serious questions being asked about Benghazi” and brushed it off as an effort by Republicans to score political points.
