TN-Gov. Phil Bredesen Gushing Over Obama's Response
President Obama is battling criticism of his administration’s reaction time to the massive Gulf Coast oil leak. In Tennessee, it’s just the opposite.

Heavy flooding has devastated the state, but Gov. Phil Bredesen couldn’t stop gushing about the president’s help on Thursday.

“FEMA and the White House have been absolutely supportive,” he told reporters on a conference call.

FEMA was quickly on the ground, and on Monday, “the president was on the phone with me before the sun came up,” he said.

...................

Bredesen, who has weathered his share of tornados and storms as a public official, said that he’s “never seen this kind of response.”

3. Let's hope the Marsha Blackburn-type supporters, those who hate our socialist government,
those who let their hate for Obama shine like a beacon, all those tea-party-types have the decency not to apply for any type of Federal government assistance for such would would expose their blatant and obscene hypocrisy for what it is. :P

4. It's a shame we humans have "controlled" the Mississippi
River so badly... as all that water flowing down river would have "flushed" the Oil out and away from the Marshes/shore in Louisiana.

(just wild a thought, Looking for a silver lining)
