Kentucky Governor: Obama people 'hit the ground running' on storm

By GottaLaff

"Hitting the ground running" seems to be the mantra for the ObamAdministration. This is the anti Katrina-White House:

Kentucky's governor is praising the Obama administration's prompt reaction to the fierce wintry weather that slammed his state.

"They really hit the ground running," said Steve Beshear, interviewed by CNN. "They're working very hard to get all the equipment and supplies here that we need."

So the U.S. government under President Obama was-- Oh, hmm, what's the word again? It's escaped me since 2001... Oh yeah-- responsive.

He said he spoke to the director of intergovernment relations and said she walked Kentucky's paperwork through. He said President Obama called him and told him he was announcing an emergency declaration for the state.

"I can't tell you how appreciative we were," the governor said. "He not only expressed his concern, but he obviously had the Kentuckians in his thoughts and prayers, and he communicated that to us."

Heckuva job, Barack.
