Mitt Romney on Wednesday stepped up his support of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, further rebuffing accusations that he would end funding for disaster relief if elected president.
“I believe that FEMA plays a key role in working with states and localities to prepare for and respond to natural disasters,” Romney said in a statement. “As president, I will ensure FEMA has the funding it needs to fulfill its mission, while directing maximum resources to the first responders who work tirelessly to help those in need, because states and localities are in the best position to get aid to the individuals and communities affected by natural disasters.”

Typical Mittens. He was against FEMA before he was for it.. He will say anything to try to get elected. Fortunately the voters aren't as stupid as he is.

Romney's solution to everything is to shovel it upstream - states or private - to take it off his rolls and onto ours. He'll balance the federal budget and pass it onto our backs. He'll look good and we'll wonder how we got into this.
Trouble is, you can't believe a dammed word that comes out of this yahoo's mouth...Willard is a pathological
liar and he simply cannot be trusted.
