Sorry, but you're stuck on stupid.

If you want Daddy, fine.

I like our current CIC.

I know. I didn't hear the interview, but the transcript was outstanding ! (Every now and then I goof on a simple typing or spelling and get ribbed for it too.)

"Honore: You are stuck on stupid. I'm not going to answer that question. We are going to deal with Rita. This is public information that people are depending on the government to put out. This is the way we've got to do it. .... "

Wow. I see the makings of a great Press Secretary here!!

I think we need a special thread entitled GENERAL HONORE containing cool quotes from him. I just love this guy. Cracks me up big time.

After the way that he talked to reporters, do you think that Senate Democrats will feel that he's too mean, like John Bolton, to deserve a promotion?

Doesn't matter, democrats are the minority.

This exchange shows the media in their true light....clueless. They keep thinking about the next question they want to ask or about ways to try to trip up the speaker rather than do what is necessary...get out clear info on what the people are to do! Honore knows what the mass media SHOULD know..that if you put out alot of names of places out there, you're going to have confusion...and people will go to the wrong place and we'll be right back where we were last time.
Meanwhile the little reporters and reporterettes try to get some face time and sound important

I doubt the promoter will be able to pull it off. But still, can you imagine how many dollars for the relief effort that a professional wrestling match featuring the tag teams of Admiral Allen & General Honore against Micheal Chertoff & Mayor Nagin could raise?

From the article: "Buses at the convention center will move our citizens, for whom we have sworn that we will support and defend..."

Is the General confused? I thought that he swore an oath to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution. Given the necessity of disarming everyone before helping them, I would have to be naked, in freezing weather, and having lost half my body weight before accepting such help. I would rather be among those whose doors are kicked in by the jack-booted-thugs. I am sure that we will fare as well as those who are officially "helped".

because you're starting to act like this is your problem. You are carrying the message, okay?

Whoa!! I wish Pres. Bush would smack reporters upside the head like this sometimes.

Really?

Which part of the Constitution states that the government's job is to help people survive hurricanes, but that people must give up their arms to receive such help?
