As a non-covered employee of the company they turned away, let me be one of many to say "Enjoy the dark, Dipshits".

I wonder if some of the lines at fuel stations are caused by the stupid law that won't allow you to pump your own gas. In most photos I only see one pump in use per attendant. I grew up in NJ and remember one attendant could jockey like 4 pumps at a time.

This will work out in our favor in the long term. When it's made very clear to those who had to sit in the dark and wait for so long,
that their wait was so long because non-union workers from other states who came to help were not permitted to help simply because they were not part of the corrupt union, it will turn some of them against union monopoly rules. CJ |

San Antonio sent 26 trucks and crews. I heard they were re-routed mid trip. I wonder if this is the reason.

I am sick of hearing the clip with the lady crying "Where is the government? We need help". Deadliest words/thought process. This event has FINALLY got my wife to agree to some modest prepping. It's for the children.

Derp. I find it amazing that NY accepted the workers and NJ did not. I hope Christie slaps them around for turning them away. If he doesn't it just proves that he is liberal republican like I've thought.

If I were one of those utilities that got denied, I'd send another truck full of generators and fuel up there, and tell my crews to park their trucks in a very highly visible area, fire up the generator, plug in some coffee makers and TV's, and sit back in some lawn chairs and watch the football games this weekend. I'd make sure they had all the comforts of home, and let the people know it.
