Emily did "very little damage"..so sayeth Wolf Blitzer

[SoCalDem]

of course the footage shown was of poor people's homes and the little downtowns, which looked to have suffered HUGE damage.. The 'fortress-like concrete resorts' fared`better, so of course that's all that matters, eh?

I am betting that there is no Mexican FEMA, so whatever the locals had, will have to be replaced (or not) on their own.

It made me sad to see that Dennis' hoopla was so 'over-the-top', and yet Emily was just a blip on the radar..

Inconvenienced tourists seems to be the biggest issue to Mexico's "neighbor to the north":(

When a hurricane hits Cuba.

4. It's the arrogance of America

If it doesn't happen to us, then it doesn't happen.

Just look at the London bombings. Was a majority of coverage about the strength that London had shown through such a terrible event? Nope. It was all about "Will this happen to us?? Is America safe???? Us! Us! Us!"
