What 150 presidentially declared disasters?

Does he mean this sort of thing:

By Aaron C. Davis / Mercury News

NEW ORLEANS - Across the hurricane-ravaged Gulf Coast, thousands upon
thousands of blue tarps are being nailed to wind-damaged roofs, a
visible sign of government assistance.

The blue sheeting -- a godsend to residents whose homes are threatened
by rain -- is rapidly becoming the largest roofing project in the
nation's history.

But it isn't coming cheap.

Knight Ridder has found that a lack of oversight, generous contracting
deals and poor planning mean that government agencies are paying as
much as 10 times what the temporary fix would normally cost. The
government is paying contractors an average of $2,480 for less than two
hours of work to cover each damaged roof -- even though it's also
giving them endless supplies of blue sheeting for free.

With all the disasters, all the incompetence and all the corruption the
USA still has heart enugh to give generously to other parts of the
earth when yet more disaster strikes. All this whilst fighting two wars
and helping Israel maintain a series of costly concentration camps for
Palastinans.

Well done!

I had wondered what would happen if disaster struck a place like
Pakistan and the USA ws seized up due to internal disorganisation.

Then it happened.

You people have got a lot of heart

(but not a lot of brain.)

The moon told me a lot of bad czjd was coming down. I wonder why God
never told GW:

Still his heart is in the right place. What, I wonder, would it take to
send his body to join it?
