Shit like this just makes me cry tears of bloody frustration. Romney gave a boilerplate, federalist, answer to a question about FEMA during one of the 3,000 GOP debates. And the media tries to make Romney out to be some type of soulless beast who roams around destroying people's homes for laughs. Meanwhile four Americans died in a country we fought a war for who were ostensibly protected by our "friends", the president tries to blame a private citizen for it, and the media is fucking nowhere to be found. My god we are truly and royally fucked if the media is a reflection of American knowledge/interest.
