Devolution to the wreckage: Mitt’s latest nonsense on FEMA

Devolution to the wreckage

by digby

Mitt Romney’s latest:

I believe that FEMA plays a key role in working with states and localities to prepare for and respond to natural disasters. As president, I will ensure FEMA has the funding it needs to fulfill its mission, while directing maximum resources to the first responders who work tirelessly to help those in need, because states and localities are in the best position to get aid to the individuals and communities affected by natural disasters.

Uhm, no. I think Colbert said it best:

“Who better to respond to what’s going on inside its own borders than a state whose infrastructure has just been swept out to sea?”
