Obama consoles New York storm victims

Wearing a wind breaker and sturdy shoes, the president walked through destroyed sections of the borough of Staten Island, hugging and chatting with people whose lives were shattered when Sandy slammed ashore on Oct. 29,[url=http://www.achetezdoudounepascher.fr]canada goose prix[/url], bringing a record storm surge and killing more than 120 people.
Among those he consoled were Glenda and Damien Moore, the Staten Island parents of four-year-old Connor and two-year-old Brandon, two boys who died after being torn from their mother's arms by raging floodwaters.
Obama praised New York police Lt. Kevin Gallagher, who stayed with the Moore family to help them through that night.
"That's not in the job description of Lt. Gallagher. He did that because that's what so many of our first responders do. They go above and beyond the call of duty to respond to people in need,[url=http://www.sacamainlouisvuittonsolde.info]louis vuitton sac[/url]," Obama told reporters.
It was Obama's first trip to New York since the storm and his Nov. 6 re-election. The trip came as he confronted other pressing issues such as the "fiscal cliff" of looming automatic tax hikes and spending cuts that could stunt economic growth,[url=http://www.uggpaschereparis.com]UGG[/url], unrest in the Middle East,[url=http://www.longchamplepliage-de.info]longchamp taschen[/url], and the fallout from the resignation of his CIA director.
The gigantic storm caused an estimated $50 billion in damage as it inundated lower Manhattan with seawater, rearranged the New Jersey shore and Long Island, and tore up neighbourhoods in far-flung areas of New York City's outer boroughs.
At least 22 people died in Staten Island, a Republican-leaning enclave that nonetheless voted for Obama 50 per cent to 49 per cent over challenger Mitt Romney.
Obama announced the appointment of Housing and Urban Development Secretary Shaun Donovan, a New Yorker, as the federal government's "point person" to oversee storm recovery.
