Anybody catch Brown's "blame game" as he left NOLA? |
|
-snip-
Asked if he was being made a scapegoat, Brown said, "By the press, yes. By the president, no."
-snip-
Ah, it's all the PRESS' fault! I understand now!
You gross fucking incompetence has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with it...I see.

nice pun considering his "profession" prior to being named FEMA director (judging race horses).

25. Brownie knows horse shit when he sees it! |
|
I'm still so amazed by the fact that we've got a guy running FEMA, who couldn't even make it in the horse industry! What does that say to our country?

4. No problem. The people aren't buying it this time! |
|
Brown's own words killed him! Must have been studying with Shrub! They're both just great with putting their respective feet in their mouths!
TS Mikey. I still think we're going to soon hear "He wants to spend more time with his family!

11. At least Nixon held press conferences. |
|
And the questions weren't scripted, either.

Because as the 'masters of doom' aka the Bush admin have figured out-no press-no problem! What hurricane? What death toll? What dead soldiers? If the press would just go away all would be right with the world.
That goddamn press-asking questions AGAIN. Showing pictures of real people hurting,dying and dead. They are the problem. Cue Bill O'Rielly. Pssst.the press are traitors..and well let's face..hurricane enablers.

15. Dear Mike Brown: GO FUCK YOURSELF. |
|
Finally...a protest chant I can get fired up about.
Whenever I see a Freeper: GO FUCK YOURSELF. 99% of what you say and do is masturbation anyway, so you shouldn't be offended.

13. Hey, Brownie was told to take his toys and go the hell home... |
|
EVERYONE but EVERYONE is pointing and laughing at this, Bush's most humiliating appointment. "Brownie", the demeaning term by which this little boob will be known for the rest of his life, has had his dick cut off, and his testicles handed to him in a sack.
I don't blame him for whining and pointing fingers like the baby sad sack he is...
Heh, I almost would feel sorry for him, except I'm so thrilled he got what was coming to him.
The next imcompetent boob to send home for good? Bush!

14. From Professor Brown? |
|
Professor of the year @ Central State University. (his resume)
Opps ..... not a professor but a student & never got that award.
His lies caught up w/ him. Sadly, his lies and political corruption and cronyism cost thousands of people their lives.
As far as I am concerned he should come clean about all the dirt then go and spend some time thinking on how he can stop the screaming in his skull. If I say anymore I will get the thread locked and I will be tomb-stoned.

you're taking his comments out of context. the transcript actually says
"By the press YES. By the President NO. Because President Bush, bless his cactussy lil heart told me that he is personally responsible for every life lost in New Orleans and in Iraq. Personally. He took the bit. He said "Brownie, the buck stops here, right under this little desk where i keep my weapon of mass description, my dictionary.
The President also took responsibility for ignoring 9/11 warnings, for dragging his feat on global warning, and for convincing Trent Lott to go to Strom Thurmonds birthday party, although he told me that Lott always had a hankering for Thurmonds wife.
And the President told me, while he was taking responsiblity for everyone of these fuckups, that he hoped history would remember and give him credit for the good things he'd done. The Red Sox winning the world series. inventing the internet. and holding the camera for tommy lee and Pamela anderson.
and then he said to me, throwing his arm around me in that folksy texas way of his... Brownie, you done good. don't let the door hit your ass on the way out and watch your back from now on."
not.

20. But, I thought Bush was steadfast... |
|
he always did what was right, regarless of whether it was possible...
he didn't buckle under media or political pressure...
What has gone wrong?

21. Shortly after he was kicked back to DC |
|
I heard, I think on CNN, that folks at FEMA were saying he had already been talking about retiring after the hurricane season.
