4. In the towns of Bay Head and Mantaloking (sp)

in NJ, those are the towns I'm very familiar with. I grew up in the town west of them. I admit That I am biased.......but ocean front property should not be private, controlled by beach front owners. That's the reality in those 2 towns.

And yes, those ocean front homes are owned by millionaires, or those close enough to pay their taxes. My parents were lucky enough to inherit a house in Bay Head, well west of the RR tracks for those of you who know the area. They've been long gone, but their former house was totally destroyed by Sandy as was my cousins. Anyone see any pictures of any Cape Cod house that was inland that was destroyed???? Maybe a couple of images, but that's about it..

My point, other than the rant ? The MSM continually shows aerial photos of the "suffering" that only represents the 1 percent, not the working people.

Oh.....and by the way......Fuck all the 67 house of reps that voted against Sandy relief. Most beach front owners are not eligible, but my cousins are damn are.

Fuck the Repugs

OK........now my rant is really over
