Good post, Thomas. The liberal media wanted to cry wolf but ended up tucking their tails.

Brownie did "a heck of a job". That's why Bush fired him.

Brown did a superb job, the mentally retarded of the MSM had there heads up there asses once again.

That's right. He was doing such a great job he got fired. LOL.

Tell me who do you work for? Apparently, the standards there are rather on the light side. Do you just have to do memos and not make sure anything gets done? If so, Brown is looking for a new job........and it sounds like he would fit in real well.

Brown did a superb job

Brown made three critical mistakes:

1. Appearing to CNN and making that statement about not being aware of people at the Superdome needing evacuation.

2. Not organizing FEMA properly during his two year tenure. There are just too many first hand stories about first responders being hindered by absurd FEMA paperwork - from NYC firemen being held in Atlanta to truckers hauling ice all over the country to doctors not being permitted to treat patients.

3. Failing to step up quickly when local NO officials proved incompetent.
