With the suspense of the Republican campaign done, Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney scheduled a last-minute visit Friday to Lafitte, La., to ltour damage with Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal.
In Louisiana, Romney will thank emergency first responders for their work.
Mr. Romney may want to reconsider his words from just two months ago, when he mocked President Obama for seeking more funding for first responders.
“He [President Obama] says we need more fireman, more policeman, more teachers,” Romney said on June 8 of this year. “Did he not get the message of Wisconsin? The American people did. It’s time for us to cut back on government and help the American people.”
Of course the ever generous Mr. Romney told a now homeless flood victim ‘Go Home And Call 211’, presumably in the hope that there would be some federal relief funds.
