Does anyone know where Tony Snow is getting his information about the Bogus police officers?

Is there a link to any of what Tony Snow found out? I would love to have written, hard copy proof of that.

AC, I know you were one of those, like me, reading virtually every post on the FR live threads during Katrina, listening to the scanners, watching the local and MSM video feeds, monitoring the satellite and radar images, reading the local blogs, etc. And it's rather disconcerting to think that those like you and I have a vastly better comprehension and understanding of what really happened (and when) than any of these goofballs in Congress or their staffs.

No wonder Congress' approval ratings are at an all-time low.

Oh boy- here we go with the Convention Center line...

Brown didn't know BECAUSE NO ONE HAD TOLD HIM.

Good LORD these people are imbeciles.

Brown: I learned about the Convention Center on Wednesday at noon. As people were kicked out of hotels, this is heresay, the only way to get there was across the walkway. As they moved into the Convention center, it spontaneously opened up and became a shelter.

I mis-spoke on Thursday that we were just learning about. I meant we were just learning about it since yesterday.

Been watching the hearing, or should I say the inquisition.

Mike Brown is doing a fairly good job keeping the wolves at bay and defending FEMA`s actions. Let's hope it continues.

You can call him a liar all day long, won't make it true. I live here, I know damn well they were not here. Not at the beginning. who's fault that is, I don't know. But they WERE NOT here in the beginning

Are you saying it took the military and NG over a week to get there???

Because that is what Congressman Tayor is claiming

indeed, there needs to be solid proof of an allegation regarding no-show jobs on the police force.

No link that I know about with Tony but he'll write something I'm sure.

It's a huge story and to my knowledge it just broke this morning.

That's your opinion...

Our opinion is we're watching him in action, and we don't much like his demeanor...OK.

the real test here is going to come when the press asks McClellan - or Bush directly - about what Brown had to say at the hearing today. will the administration support him?

You think to yourself that you are such a clever troll, OV.

But most can see through your BS, you were the first one on FR looking for Brown's head.

You are so freaking transparent.

Damage control ain't going to work for you hillary hon.

Brown is not good in when on the hot seat... but he is defensive because he knows he has taken the blame and people lied about him.

So...the press covers its culpability, Congress covers its culpability, the Dems cover their culpability.

Yep, the Democrat system of check and balances in action. (And, as far as I'm concerned, Shays is one of them.)

No! It is not their job to evacuate, but these inept Congress people cannot get it through their heads.

>>>>>These reps are absolutely idiotic. Do they not understand that this was a state and local issue.

I believe they do understand that. They have to throw out enough insane red herrings to muddle attempts of the general public following what really happened.

If they don't, their media spin tactics won't work.
