Just how dishonest have Blanco and Landrieu been about their expectations of FEMA?
Did they railroad FEMA Undersecretary Mike Brown??

Check out these images from FEMA's web site of Blanco and Landrieu meeting with Brown in Baton Rouge, Monday, August 29, 2005:

Senator Mary Landrieu and Governor Blanco are pitiful frauds. They screwed up and are now attempting to cover their butts, by blaming the feds for their failures. Both were taped and caught lying on TV. Both along with that dumb mayor are political history.

That look on Brown's face in the last picture says it all! Yes, I believe he was made the scapegoat.

Thanks for the pics, Zacs Mom. FEMA, Michael Brown, was THERE pre-storm trying to do his job.
