You really have the facts ass-backwards. Mitt never promised a chicken in

every pot. It was Obama who promised something similar: a stipend to

everyone who doesn't pay taxes. He now has promised to make everyone harmed

by Sandy in New York and New Jersey whole. This will cost you and me

billions of dollars. If people are so stupid as to build an expensive house

on the sand dunes of the barrier islands, they should not get off scot free.

The Feds underwrite all flood insurance when private firms do not.
