    Why bash FOX NEWS in this insurance related article? Liberals always had control over the media and they just cannot handle fair and balanced FOX NEWS. This attitude of theirs exposes how vacant their ideas are, and it’s childish.

    Of course they know that they covered only flood damage. State Farm only covered wind damage. It’s a natural conclusion!

    Two points:

    First, Policy holders have given the National Flood Program’s claims handling a 97% plus satisfaction rating. As an agency of FEMA, the NFIP has the needs of it’s policy holders (read that voters/citizens)at the forefront of their efforts, which is to assist the community in rebuilding as quickly as possible.

    It isn’t FEMA’s nor the NFIP’s fault if property owners in low to moderate risk flood zones don’t buy the coverage, or the agent’s don’t advise that flood is available.

    Second point, the single adjuster program came about in order to expedite the settlement of those combination wind & flood claims. Rather than having two separate adjusters / firms comparing notes as to what damages are assigned and where to allocate the losses, which will invariably creat delays in getting $$$$$$ into the hands of the indureds.

    But we do nknow that because of brain-dead residents of Mississippi that didn’t have the intelligence to purchase flood insurance, that wind coverage insurance policies DID have to pay for flood damage. The poster boy for stupidity is Senator Trent Lott!!

    Why is that neo-kkkonservatives like Rick love to scream that the news is liberal? What a crock! FAUX News Fair & Balanced? What a crock as well. It’s funny that you call libs childish and vacant yet you neo-kkkons believe in fairy tales and myths such as the bible and god. What a(nother) crock.
