ass....

Next time President Bush should just hire Miss Cleo.

[wideawake]

Tom Keane - carpetbagging RINO of the first water.

[sinkspur]

I'm so tired of these two..........

"“A number of our recommendations were in the area of emergency preparedness. Had they been executed, the death toll would have been lower,” Hamilton said."

Or he could have said "Most of out recommendations in the are of emergency preparedness we're executed and they didn't do anyone any good, they just wasted money."

But that would have been "an extraordinary statement for this" former congressman.

This is just so typical. Bush declared a national disaster area 2 days before the storm hit - what was he supposed to do? Divine the ferocity before the national weather service even could? Ignore the LA governor and send in troops anyway? Keane may be an *ss but he could not find himself with both hands.

[lormand]

Why do DemocRATS AND Republicans appoint liberal hacks to commissions?

[atomicpossum]

Why the hell should we care what these biased flacks think? And, if they exonerated Bush, would that be a story? Heck, no.

[Bushman2]

These two guys should have been in the NO nursing home.

[Cricket24]

Were they there? Can you believe that lying governor? Hamilton and Keane should keep their mouths shut especially in light of the lousy job they did on the 9--1 commission.

So Bush should have sent the regular army into southern Mississippi, the area which took the direct hit from the hurricane. Even on Wednesday August 31, the head of Louisiana's homeland security department was still claiming that the levy breaks were managable and should be fixed within the day - although it is now clear that he was talking out his backside.

[Dahoser]

Who is Thomas Keane? Is he any relation to Thomas Kean, the former governor of New Jersey?

[lilylangtree]

Shows how a dumb-dumb who doesn't know the difference between states rights and federal rights thinks.

[Slings and Arrows]

A little something for the respected chairpersons:

[PajamaTruthMafia]

These two guys should have been in the NO nursing home LOL! You got that right! Would have done the Nation a favor!

Hey guys, what about Able Danger?

[lormand]

Where did this guy carpetbag from?

He was the Gov of NJ right? If so, what should anyone expect?

[NordP]

DEMOCRATS

IT'S ALL BUSH'S FAULT!

That would have been an impeachable offense...not that our democrat friends would ever consider pursuing that! (/sarc)
