I dunno: whut? As I refuse to have cableTV in my household ( the only news I
miss is the Daily Show, the ONLY real news show on cable: thank goodness The
Comedy Channel streams it....) I didn't get to see this exchange. So I
googled up Zahn and Nagin, but NO answers...but I DID find this gem from
Sept.1 with Brownie, FEMA head lickspittle....
  Brown: I will tell you this, though, every person in that convention
center, we just learned about that today and so I have directed that we have
all the available resources to get to that convention center to make sure
that they have the food and water, the medical care that they need.

  Paula Zahn: Sir, you're not telling me - you're not telling me that you
just learned that the folks at the convention center didn't have food and
water until today, are you? You had no idea that they were completely cut
off?

  Brown: Paula, the federal government did not even know about the
convention center people until today.

FEMA, in other words, knows less about this emergency than anyone with
access to a television or the internet.



And it only gets worse from that day onward. They forgot the first rule of
spinning: When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.

 Oh, she never asked him. that's right.  Because

FINALLY! Okay! You see MudHead, the truth only stings for .....well,
actually, forever......

What did Governor Blanco say when Paula asked her

Damn Straight: can you dig it? SHAFT!

You neocons can dream on.....allthough Shrubby DID say life would be much
better if HE was the dictator.

You're beginning to show your fascist roots. Are all of your shirts brown, o
r is that tabacky stain hard to remove?

 He should have then personally seen to it that all those

Oh, a water and food drop Wed. AM might have saved scores, and reassured
thousands...... but they didn't. Nor did the FEMA
gang-that-couldn't-pad-their-resumes -straight let the thousands of first
responders ( the ones who responded first - before FEMA ) into the state to
do FEMA's job.

And when those flood waters started to rise,

Or he could have waved his hand to release the emergency flights lined up
across the nation ( and the world ) had he not been too busy strummin' the
Geeetar, and munching yummy yummy cakey-wake.

Precisely. Glad you finally came around. You must have missed Rush today:
you're sadly off  smear...er message.
