Brownie on CNN responding to Edwards' proposal to

[Subdivisions]

enact a new law called "Brownie's Law" which will require that those appointed to a position be experienced.

"If John Edwards had a problem with my experience then he shouldn't have voted to confirm me."

And...

"At the time, I had more emergency management experience that Edwards had senatorial experience."

Paraphrased from broadcast, but it's close enough to what he said.

[saracat]

1. What a Idiot.He had NO emergency experience. Edwards didn't LIE

about being a newbie Senator.Brownie pretended to have experience!

[valerief]

2. Yep, he said that. He did a heckuva job on NOLA, didn't he? That

"experience" really came in handy, didn't it?

What a douche.

[graywarrior]

3. He's a crybaby.

[MethuenProgressive]

4. Edwards really screwed up by bringing up "experience"

He's seriously lacking grown-ups as advisors.

[rudy23]

6. I think a lawyer has experience with the law that would serve them well as a lawmaker

Brownie on the other hand...

[MethuenProgressive]

7. Presidents don't "make law" - Neither do ex-Senators

Edwards, if he was really sincere about all the issues he claims as "important", should've stayed in teh Senate and actually done something about them. Instead, he quit.

[Disturbed]

8. "he shouldn't have voted to confirm me."

Yes, he should not have. Edwards has foot in mouth with this issue.

[Adsos Letter]

9. yeah...that was probably a tactical error...

:D

[rudy23]

11. Brownie was attacking his experience as a Senator, when he was confirmed

Not as a President.

[LSK]

12. Kill the messenger

Edwards point is very valid.

Or do you feel like comfortable with third rate hacks running FEMA?

[in_cog_ni_to]

5. Isn't the "Brownie Law" a little AFTER THE FACT, BROWNIE? What a dumb ass!

Edwards shouldn't have voted for him because he didn't have a crystal ball and didn't know Brownie was completely and totally INEPT??? Good G-d almighty. The man is a MORAN!!!!111!!!!!1111!!!!!111

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

10. Damn, he's got a point.

He never should have been confirmed.

[zbdent]

13. "he shouldn't have voted to confirm me."

and if the Dems had tried to do any investigation into Brownie's qualifications ... the MSM would have screamed bloody murder that the Dems were invading his privacy ... conveniently ignoring the fact that most employers can look into your credit history + these days ...

[Disturbed]

14. Edwards has a valid issue but he should not have mentioned

Brown because Edwards voted to confirm him. Edwards made two mistakes:Confirming Brown then mentioning his name to make a point.

[smokey nj]

15. How can Brownie say that John Edwards voted to confirm him when

he was confirmed by voice vote?
