No, but it's always difficult to pat yourself on the back.
Go run fema then. As of now, FEMA IS NOT ON THE HOOK FOR COMMUNICATIONS.
Thanks for posting.

Brown blames 'dysfunctional' Louisiana (FoRmer FEMA head)
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1492174/posts
Yup.
But Brown is telling the truth.
That would allow the MSM to turn him into a target.
Brown is saying exactly what happened. That's why these hearings are being held, and why the Demo(n)cRATS are boycotting them.
They know how bad they are going to look.
"I find it absolutely stunning that this hearing would start out with you, Mr. Brown, laying the blame for FEMA's failings at the feet of the governor of Louisiana and the Mayor of New Orleans."
Would he prefer Brown wait until the hearing had progressed a little more before he blamed the people who were responsible?
ping
BTTT!
bttt
WTG Brown, hats off to a man who isn't going to put his head in the sand and play PC patsy for the rats or media. I hope Brown has just lit the fire under the spineless GOP.
You're absolutely right. But who listens to us. Afterall, were just 'the public' so what do we know?
Sadly, I have to respectfully disagree with you. The masses are fed garbage and lies by a sophisticated MSM. They have been subjected to public education and don't know anything about how government works -- federal vs. local responsibilities. What is clear as day to Freepers is lost on most of the public, besides, they are more interested in who will be voted off Surviver this week. Bush must have screwed it up, that's the only message that they've had, that's what so many believe.
Just think, Rep. Jefferson, himself, used the military to evacuate HIS home of papers he didn't want the FBI to get, or the boxes of money, INSTEAD of helping them with search and rescue... that is not part of the news is it? The military was dumbfounded at his delaying them, getting their vehicles bogged down, but I was shocked that the military didn't put him in his place. They did photograph it from what I heard later on Rush....
I wonder why the investigative body doesn't consist of the first responders, police, firefighters, doctors, etc., who stayed and did their jobs, instead of the jerks that make it up now? This is the most ignorant thing I have ever seen... so partisan and non of them knows his ass from a hole in the ground... sorry but am fed up with these people. We are living it. FEMA is not the problem, though they need re vamping, too much paper, contractors not informed of policy or procedure, but they are not in charge of running anything in law enforcement or communications.
Amen.
"That would allow the MSM to turn him into a target."
Like he's not now?
If disasters hit other Dim states I wonder what nit-wits would be flushed out.
I guess that's why Blank-o was elected with solid majorities from the parishes in the northern part of the state. But don't let the facts get in the way of a pithey comment.
The republicans that are going after this guy are being stuck on stupid. It is bad enough liberal hacks like Mara are doing it but republicans, What Up with that!
