Idiots--they get everything bass ackwards.

It's that new bureaucracy of the Department of Homeland Security that's un-American and a burden to all. But just because it's Shrub's baby, not Clinton's. we have to go for the incompetence.

Once again hubris and overweening stupidity rules in this admin.

7. Susan Collins is hot to get the president more personally involved

in disasters.



I dunno....sounds a bit dangerous, under the circumstances. I hate to see Shrub with even more blatantly dictatorial decider powers cuz of a hurricane...

besides, I think the president has broad powers already for this. Shrub just didn't use them as he should. He delegated and went on vacation.

2. I was just thinking, when I heard this story, that FEMA was OK before
this ridiculous "homeland security" bullshit. It must be part of the Plan.

4. yep, absolutely... DHS is an albatross, and one of the many millstones
around our collective neck. It should never have been created in the first place, IMO.

5. Rebuild from the bottom up, so EVERY LEVEL is staffed w/Repug cronies!!
Every disaster they help to bring on is just an excuse to further the takeover in the name of "change". Same old MO we've seen every time.
