"Duct tape man" that's the best you can come up with for FEMA?
For real? I didn't care for him the first time around. What is it with this administration and their ridiculous decisions that affect us all? I mean, come on already, I got nothing against duct tape I'm handy around the house and so is it, but are you really trying to tell me that the best you can advise me for these disasters is duct tape and plastic wrap? That's the preparedness plan...for who the Pillsbury dough boy?

1. He'll screw up and be out the door in a month
Daffy Duct will probably tell us to wrap ourselves in aluminum foil next.

2. Along with the Tooth Fairy, Santa, and Easter Bunny
we're all in good hands, right?

Well, wrap me in plastic and roll me in duct tape - I feel better already! :sarcasm:

5. Exactly, WHAT? BAH I am so sick of this insanity it's like my
government is smoking crack. You know, like they are doing it in front of the children and everything, cooking it up right here at home while the rest of the family and especially the children suffer because of this INSANITY.

"Duct tape man" with his plastic wrap what the heck happened to "we are the only ones that can keep you safe any time, any where from any threat, nukular, biological, etc., etc, ad nauseum?" WHAT A SHAM! WHAT A SHAME!

3. Did the duct-tape advice help? I think it did.
After all, I don't see any terrorists.

How do you know it WASN'T the duct tape, hmmmmmm?

Now, shut up and be happy.

9. Oh, sorry, did I go off on you? It's not you. It's this foul, foul
Federal Government that terrorizes me and makes me feel like that little smiley (notice it's not smiling) that is suspicious and wants to run and hide alot.

4. If those people in New Orleans
had just heeded his infinite wisdom and used plastic sheeting and duct tape to keep the water out, we wouldn't be in this mess right now would we?

:evilgrin:

10. Well, um, actually, I don't think duct tape and saran wrap is a
good idea for a Cat 5 storm...or any storm. "Duct tape guy" geez and in a "post-9-11" world too. You know, everything changed on 9-11.

6. Heh! I taped/sheeted my doors and windows and
I am still alive.
How can you argue with this kind of genius?
