Michael Brown Blame Game, part II - Fess up. It's our fault.
Edited on Tue Sep-27-05 05:38 PM by pinto
I know that we have avoided the Blame Game in the interests of national unity after the Katrina disaster. But in light of today's testimony from FEMA's point man, Brown (well, former point man, removed for incompetence, resigned and rehired as consultant point man Brown) the time has come to admit it. It's my fault. I'm sorry.

:crazy:

1. Actually, I thought it was Brownies audition tape for a role on SNL...
Brownie gave them a bit much to work with...superhero, dysfuntional government, ice trucks, FEMA does not provide rapid response :eyes: or 5 gallons of gas....

Brown, Taking Responsibility - that would have been over the top. :rofl:

3. And he's a paid "consultant" for FEMA now. 30 days only, though, that'll
probably be enough to take the hit while Busboy does some photo ops. It's just bizarre.
