Shit Republican Candidates Say
“We should be like 1900; we should be like 1940, 1950, 1960. I live on the Gulf Coast; we deal with hurricanes all the time. Galveston is in my district.” -Ron Paul, New Hampshire, August 2011, explaining why FEMA should not respond to Hurricane Irene. The 1900 Galveston hurricane cost the 2005 equivalent of $99.4 billion dollars. It remains the deadliest hurricane in U.S. history.
