Brownie - heck, he makes a lot of sense on CNN
What he is saying fills in a whole bunch of holes I saw in the coverage. And by not attacking the bushistas, actually, he makes them look even worse.
I suspect that as more e-mails and facts - (covered up by the White house) come out, he will look even better.

Mikie, excuse me for my past thoughts, I actually think that you did do a good job under the circumstances.

1. well -- considering who he was working for
i might lighten up on him.

2. Is he selecting the emails?
They all talk a good game. But they DID nothing.

4. Confirms what I said initially.
There is no incompetence this great.

This was a DELIBERATE act by Bush and Chertoff. He knew it was coming. He knew what the potential damage was. AND..HE..LET..IT..HAPPEN.

Go have birthday cake with John McCain. Go pluck a guitar at a fundraiser in California. Let a whole fucking city drown deliberately.

There is no such thing as incompetence on this scale.

George W. Bush is a murdering piece of shit. Where is justice?

8. Brownie is a poor excuse for a human
It's about leadership. Brownie was the HEAD of FEMA. He was not just some messenger boy. He participated in photo ops and delivered the party line. At no point during the entire disaster did Brown show one ounce of leadership. He is just as bad and just as guilty has the rest of them.

9. I haven't seen much of the coverage, but my concern
is that he's painting a picture of government incompetence (one, that, in earlier Clinton years, likely would not have been the case) which will give more credibility to their desire of shrinking government and starving the beast.

There's something fishy about this.
