Michael Brown: Obama Wanted Oil Spill (VIDEO)
Bush-era FEMA head Michael Brown accused President Obama Monday of "playing politics" with the Gulf Coast oil spill, claiming that Obama waited for the spill to worsen in order to turn public opinion against offshore drilling.

Brown, most infamous for his response to Hurricane Katrina, told Neil Cavuto that Obama and his administration are thrilled by the current disaster in the Gulf. "This is exactly what they want, because now he can pander to the environmentalists and say, 'I'm gonna shut it down because it's too dangerous,'" Brown said. "This president has never supported big oil, he's never supported offshore drilling, and now he has an excuse to shut it back down."

'Heckuva Job Brownie can bite me. Like he has a shred of credibility where disaster response is concerned.

3. Did he slip and say storm?
Sounds like ol' Brownie's packing some baggage. What unresolved issues might he be carting around that buying a shirt to look awesome in won't fix?

7. Oh right, the FEMA asswipe that fucked up everything he could on purpose
and instead of going to jail, he got a medal from Idiot Son. The loser still has a day job? I'd figure trash as special as him would be picking through dumpsters.

9. This is a guy who should shut up and never show his face on tv again.
One of the worst. Not too mention before FEMA he was a judge...for a horse association.

10. That's just fucking psychotic. Obama wants to poison the ocean
to show the public how oil drilling can poison the ocean? That's like setting your house on fire to show the kiddies how fire will burn down the house.
