So when you MAKE a DISASTER movie that is TRYING to say something about our WORLD, you reach for images that haunt you.

I THINK Naomi Klein was very astute with her book 'Shock DOCTRINE.' We MAKE money on disaster.

By incorporating disaster spending into the annual BUDGET we can HELP Americans with disaster assistance WITHOUT the PROCESS BECOMING a pathway for runaway spending on unrelated projects.

A GREAT power has to have the discipline not only to GO when necessary but to know when not to go. Getting INVOLVED in ETHNIC, religious civil wars is a recipe for disaster.

I have been WORKING on my backhand SINCE I was the AGE of FIVE. And it's a DISASTER, my backhand, so I'm working on it.

I think Mr. OBAMA is a DISASTER for business and a disaster for the UNITED States. Not that Mr. Romney WOULD be much better, but the Republicans understand the problem of excessive debt better than Mr. Obama, who basically doesn't care about piling up debt.

Speaking nothing of how we often fall SHORT in keeping our promises, we frequently play an unnecessary game of POLITICS with key issues - using must-pass legislation such as disaster relief as a vehicle to sweeten unrelated, contentious BILLS that MAY not otherwise pass as stand-alone measures.

No CHILD LEFT BEHIND was a DISASTER.

Sometimes it TAKES a NATURAL disaster to reveal a SOCIAL disaster.
