so what is mit romney doing it because of hurricane sandy he's getting
completely desperate and making all sorts of mistakes number one mit romney
decided to hold any storm relief avent in ohio
what is a storm relief about well it's an event at the exact same location that
he already had a campaign campaign rally planned
something with a different name he changed the name of it from a campaign
rally to a storm relief of that
this is completely booked
remember how we talked about will first of all this was an event
this is so funny
race car driver richard petty
and country music artist who ran the elin
and api heat this was the storm relief about they got together
to really do do storm relief in kettering ohio not a place that was
particularly hit hard by the hurricane
yeah uh... obviously still
the campaign event i mean i i hope
these uh... the stars donated some money to the red cross or something at least
every some good was done
behalf but let's get into that was the fact that that yesterday we talked about
how
the red cross advises that in the days before and during during hurricane
relief
collect items because the items have to be
sordid
checked in repackage needs assessment and distributed so items are not really
uh... a good thing to be collecting for the red cross in the actual days leading
up to the to the uh... hurricane or during hurricane relief money is because
the money can be used to buy whatever is needed
right nearby and and brought over running campaigns as you know what we're
just gonna collect stuff because we're gonna make this seem like it's like
we're doing something it's gonna be great
find they go against the rules
then they
get they collect these these items at this storm relief about it turns out
that they themselves bach a lot of the items because they were worried if
people don't show up with items we needed photo-op so we actually need to
make sure we have these items here so the campaign bought a lot of the items
then donated them to themselves in order to then donate them to the red cross
against red cross policy for hurricane relief
this is the epitome this is the epitome of absurdity
the romney campaign decided they're gonna donate those supplies
only in republicans swing states not new york
which is a solid blue state hip hop hard by the hurricane
not new jersey another solidly blue state
hit hard by the hurricane
there is one caveat here fortunately a red cross warehouse has agreed to it the
to accept the donations
even though it's a direct contradiction of their policies there saying listen
the guy collected the stuff
will take it even though it's kind of a logistical nightmare this is exactly why
we don't want stuff we want dollars before the campaign
uh... before the the hurricane which of course mit romney is not going to donate
any dollars he needs them for uh... dishonest attack ads and swing states
so that mitt romney says we're gonna send these supplies of course it's all
non-political it's a storm belief about what will collect the supplies
and in the supplies aren't going to continue working new jersey despicable
this is exactly what romney men when he was talking about the forty seven
percent no the
whatever dot small percentage is that he's trying to win over
by this these are the people in this week's states rights exactly what is
going for yet
