"Bush is the dude who is handing everybody lots of money in the aftermath"

You need to wait and see how this resolves. The money hasn't been spent, and it is not clear it will be.

[Howlin]

What is wrong with these people?

[gopwinsin04]

Rep. Taylor blantantly grandstands with the Iraq card!

[mystery-ak]

What a twit....FEMA has no controll of the Guard.....

[Concerto in D]

Drat! I was following the thread while listening to the radio. Something about who responded when.

[CyberAnt]

Hey girl, how are ya! I agree with you about Jeb's expertise with emergencies. He would be a great choice. But .. he won't be out of a job until January 2007.

[pollyannaish]

The press is in serious CYA mode because they know that they are largely culpable in this situation...but have been congratulating incessantly about how great a job they did with this coverage. It has been downright disgusting.

Quite frankly, this is going to cause blowback...but its going to be on the head of the press, and local LA politicians.

That Dem looked like an absolute ass.

This is an excellent, exhaustive timeline:

I thought Barbour praised FEMA's work in Mississippi?

[Peach]

Barbour DID praise FEMA.

[gopwinsin04]

This clown was going to switch over to the GOP??!!

[Concerto in D]

Thank you so much!

[VirginiaMom]

these satellite phones.......it was my understanding that the monies given to each state's Department of Homeland Security was to help purchase these.......maybe I'm wrong. I could've sworn I read that little tidbit somewhere.

[Don'tMessWithTexas]

Brown handled that point wonderfully. Now the RINO.

[floriduh voter]

Oh, no. Chris Shays, R. Connecticut

Is he a good GOP or a bad GOP?

[Mo1]

Shays up comparing Brown to Gullianni

Good Grief

[SE Mom]

If you find the answer Howlin..it will be the 8th wonder of the world.

[Peach]

RINO Christopher Shays is up.

He's not happy with Brown and his answers.

And we just KNEW the left would play the National Guard/Iraq card. Even though something like 80% of Guardsmen are IN this country.

[Howlin]

It is not the job of George W. Bush to keep your gas tank off E.

Evidently that's right where this is heading.

I want to know what THESE FOOLS did before Katrina to prevent all this mess?
