7. He ran out after only a few questions.
Edited on Wed Sep-07-05 02:39 PM by El Supremo
Paraphrasing:

"What about Pelosi asking for your resignation?"
"I serve at the will of the President."

"What about Pat Robertson's group being on the web site for donations?"
"Any legit organization is OK"

2. Asked by the media if he has offered his resignation
Edited on Wed Sep-07-05 02:28 PM by Spazito
His answer: I serve at the pleasure of the President

Translation: Nope, haven't offered. President hasn't asked.

Edited to add: Was asked about Pat Robertson's 'charity' being posted on FEMA's site, who put it there?

Answer: Probably my staff, we are not refusing anyone who offers help.
(Except from 90 countries - my extraneous comment, lol)

6. Did you hear him defend Operation Blessing.
He said, yes, I know it's Pat Robertson's. Anyone who wants to help is fine (something like that).

12. LOL, James Lee Witt told him to stand aside and let an expert
do the actual work so 'Brownie' has plenty of time available to do the press conference and get blasted. Gotta love it!

13. My sole question
Besides your administration connections, what are your qualifications to head up FEMA?
