Eat your heart out, Politico.
As you’re well aware at this point, political cartoonist Matt Wuerker created this offensive depiction of the Texas victims of Hurricane Harvey:
While people in Texas are drowning and others watch their lives and property being destroyed, Politico decided it was a good time to mock them for being redneck, Tea Party, secessionist rubes who dare to put their faith in God, and NOT in government.
Via RedState:
Since Hurricane Harvey hit Houston and environs we’ve become familiar with the armada of privately owned small watercraft–from jet skis through pleasure boats–that have self-mobilized to rescue stranded Houstonians.
Less well known are the exploits of another rescue vehicle ideally suited to flooded areas: the monster truck.
With that in mind, we present to you a recently surfaced video of what the author describes as the “Redneck Army” coming to the rescue of a government vehicle.
In other words, we got your government assistance right here …

This is by no means a slight against the National Guard, Coast Guard, FEMA, or other government workers doing amazing work right now in Texas.
Rather, it’s a reminder to the elitist media that it is actually possible to believe in a limited government, not an eliminated government, and still appreciate the help groups like the Coast Guard and National Guard provide.
No one show this to @wuerker or he might choke on his hate https://t.co/OUfRc9oiVd

It’s a reminder that sometimes people can also help themselves with a little guidance from the Man upstairs.
My favorite thing about this is the hollerin’ as they pull the truck free. America is awesome. #HoustonStrong #GodBlessAmerica https://t.co/ICYphJWp4M

Everybody working together to help those in need. Government helping the people. People helping the government.
People helping people.
The way it should be.
