Worth repeating. Some Freepers think this is a "Republican Party Right or Wrong" site, when it's supposed to be a conservative site. Yet you've got purported conservatives breathlessly defending the ineptitude of an unqualified bureacrat who failed to position his bloated federal agency so it could actually perform its mission. Meanwhile, the power of the images becomes the story of New Orleans: poor, black, and powerless people desperate for water; a seven-year old with her throat slit by a thug; FEMA stopping trucks filled with food and water.
It's a political disaster for Bush, but the ardent defenders of FEMA and Brown are playing right into the hands of the Bush-hating Left.
Bush should fire "Brownie" today, and he should fire Chertoff tomorrow. He should show America that personal responsibility is a Republican Party value. Then he should nominate Janice Rogers Brown for Sandy O'Connor's seat, and put the Left on the defensive again.
He's fully qualified. Next whine.
You're correct. But those FReepers are almost always either liberal or perpetually angry Libertarians.
Please, if Bush said the sun was hot, the bush-haters would call him a liar. Damn, you sing the song of hillery. It is not a disaster for Bush. I don't give a rats-ass about fema or Brown, but I will not lay down and let them be the scapegoats for the state and local officials of La. That's all they are, they are being used as scapegoats and I'm sick of it. If you want to scream from the rafters start with Nagin and Blank-o, and Landrieu. That's where the criticism lays. On them. They are doing what democrats always do...deflect and project, and so many are falling for it. I was one of them for 32 years, I know how they operate. This is a textbook example of what the dims are made of and how they react.
