Republicans Prepared To Disagree With President Obama's Handling Of Hurricane Irene

SYGM News -- Even as Hurricane Irene continues to batter the East Coast of the United States, the Republican Party is already preparing its response to President Obama's handling of this weather phenomenon.

"I weep for America, because I'm a Good American."

Speaker of the House John Boehner has already disagreed with how the President is handling the aftermath of the storm, even though the storm is still active.

"We are not sure how the President will respond to this, or how FEMA will respond.  But you can guarantee that it will be a call that is bad for Americans, and bad for this economy.  We are prepared to disagree with the President and his administration on how to handle this, and we are prepared to block any aid that FEMA plans to distribute, unless there are some budgetary offsets on the table.  As of now, we have seen none."

Republican Presidential candidate and Texas Governor Rick Perry is also ready to be proactive in countering the President's response.

"Just as I do while serving as the President of Texas, God Bless Texas, I'm willing to do as serving as the President of the United States, even though I hate Washington.  I would have handled this completely differently than Obama, even if I don't know how he is directly responding.  I would do my best to assure that Ponzi schemes such as aid from FEMA and the National Guard units across the country are not wasted on liberal elites in New York City."

Congressman Michele Bachmann (R-MN), another Presidential candidate, chimed in that she is sure that President Obama and his "socialist policies" will do nothing to aid the people of this country.

"I haven't seen an effective response to a natural disaster since the outstanding way (former FEMA director) Mike Brown handled the Katrina mishap.  He was doing a heckuva job then, and he'll do a heckuva job in my administration."
