A tale of two hurricanes

A reader mentioned that we ought to dig up the old photo of the shrub, when, in the hours after Hurricane Katrina struck the US mainland on October 29, 2005, he flew to California to have a birthday cake with Senator John McCain, and take funny photos laughing together while Americans were quite literally drowning in New Orleans.And what did President Obama do after Hurricane Sandy struck the east coast, destroying large swaths of New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and more? Less than two days later, President Obama flew to the scene to comfort the victims and get a first-hand briefing on the extent of the damage.
Democrats: We do things differently.

Two different responses to a devastating hurricane hitting the continental United States.
