Michael Brown: Obama Wanted The Oil Spill To Happen

Ex-FEMA director Michael Brown today claimed that President Obama waited to respond to the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico because he wanted an excuse to shut down offshore drilling.

Brown, who directed FEMA under George W. Bush, is famous for his own botched response to Hurricane Katrina.

So what does he have to say about this latest environmental disaster?

"The delay was this," Brown said on Fox News today. "It's pure politics."

He continued: "This president has never supported big oil, he's never supported offshore drilling, and now he has an excuse to shut it back down."

Brown noted the potential damage the oil slick will cause, and added: "This is exactly what they want, because now (Obama) can pander to the environmentalists and say, 'I'm gonna shut it down because it's too dangerous.'"

Heckuva theory, Brownie.

I have heard him on KOA in Denver.

Oh, Faux. Nevermind.

It worked for him.

Too bad he didn't acquire his awesome powers until AFTER he left government!

does this little lie to yourself clear your conscience?

So why is anyone listening to anything they have to say?

What the fuck place does he think he has commenting on ANY disaster scenarios?

(Use your imagination!) ;)

You question Obama's birthplace, this political affiliation, his religion, and his motives...well that just makes you a "Patriotic" teabagger.
