They voted for the person they thought best represents their leanings. I have sat out many a storm (lasting multiple days) not only have I sat them out, I have had to be sent to devastated areas regardless of my own personal family, home and belongs when they occurred. I am a first responder. None of you no know nothing about me and what I have done or seen in my life. Get off your high horses and go help if you are that upset about it!!!!! I guess it is easier to command a keyboard and make false assumptions about people you know nothing about, Flame away, I been through much worse. If you guys want to go tit for tat, I will show you mine if you show me yours.
