anyone else find it surreal multimillionaire Mitt Romney is collecting dollars from middle class and poor people to pay for disaster relief.

Instead of nice photogenic gestures; how about paying a fair tax rate so we can afford, weather satellites to warn us of storms, long term disaster preparation organizations and planning, regional mitigation's such as damns to minimize destruction, etc...

Isn't anyone else embarrassed the riches nation on Earth has a political candidate that thinks Mickey Rooney like barn shows are the answer to how the country pays and responses to national disasters?
