As USA Today observes, “Camp Freedom” more closely “resembles a prison camp”.

As he lights up a Marlboro and takes a slow drag before exhaling, Brian Sotelo is a man who finally has reached his breaking point.

Anger drips from every word as he peers at the tops of white tents rising over the trees in the distance. The depth of despair in his eyes is difficult to fathom.

…He stood and talked in the cool morning air a short distance up the road after security at the front gate threatened to have his car removed outside the entrance to what Sotelo’s identification tag calls “Camp Freedom,” even though it more closely resembles a prison camp.

The Seaside Heights, N.J., resident was at a Toms River, N.J., arena with his wife and three kids a half hour before the shelter opened as superstorm Sandy approached last week. On Wednesday, Sotelo was part of a contingent shifted to this makeshift tent city in a parking lot across the road from a racetrack about 30 miles north…

Maybe they should claim they are part of the Occupy movement. They would be eating oysters and crab and have the best housing Soros and Obama could supply from their personal stashes and from the stimulus funds.

Speaking of Jersey– Did you see where Christie called to congratulate BHO and E-Mailed condolences to Mitt? Think he’ll be in Obama’s cabinet?

@Skookum: @Skookum: This is an absurd hyperbole—there are always those in the upper echelon who benefit more from their political movements, but they would benefit any way, regardless of what they did.

Don’t affect me. I am all about me and free condoms. Did Family Planning set up a killing tent.

@Skookum: No — the moo-la would all be on the tax-payers — you know — the “RICH”

I’d bet every one of those whiners voted for obie in 2008 and 2012 — and will vote for whatever turd the democRAT party poops up in 2016

@Budvarakbar: Anyone who should even consider “celebrating” victory in electorial votes; should be shipping their food, money, heartfelt……….wait, that’s gone too far…mercies to the Easterners who just flushed their whole lives out to sea and are starving and freezing their asses off. How…could anyone with a conscience …never mind they have no inner brain activity. Gee and I had hope for a government. Ha. So sorry anyone and I mean anyone hurting so bad they can’t fix it…May hope and moving forward be what makes a difference for them.
