Oops, Chris Christie may have mis-spoken

I just heard him say on CNN that New Jersey expected to be treated "just like people in New Orleans, Alabama, & Mississippi were treated during Katrina"..I would NOT want that kind of treatment...at all..

Apparently the state owned power company cannot seem to get power restored to too many poor people.

Looking at the devastation, I don't see HOW power can be restored to rubble..
Those people need to be MOVED..Living in rubble and waiting to have power restored seems to be a futile effort..

Obama's Katrina. Peter King says people in NY are living like a third world country.

People living in permanent homes, in areas that used to be weekend/camping areas have been lucky for decades & their luck ran out.,
