until 10 pm, with Greta Van, finally asked about him. What a sad sorry
so called "News" Channel Fox is. People at that hour watching Fox are getting their bedpans
changed, or heavily medicated.

Readout of the Presidents Call with Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin
This evening the President spoke with Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin to express his concern for those who have been affected by the severe weather beginning last night and continuing today. While information is still coming in, the President made clear that his Administration, through FEMA, stands ready to provide all available assistance as the Governors team responds to the storm and that he has directed his team to ensure that they are providing available resources as the response unfolds. FEMA has deployed an Incident Management Assistance Team to the state emergency operations center in Oklahoma City to support state and local officials on the ground and additional personnel and resources stand ready to be dispatched as necessary. The President told Governor Fallin that the people of Oklahoma are in his and the First Ladys thoughts and prayers and, while his team will continue to keep him updated, he urged her to be in touch directly if there were additional resources the Administration could provide.

(978 posts)4. Fox will blame Obama for something on the storm
Just watch them (or rather don't watch them). Federal relief won't be delivered fast enough. They'll complain he was playing basketball while the tornado struck.
