"The President couldn't have chosen a better man": Mike Brown

[dunlurken]

News break on TV right now. Thad Allen has been appointed.

Sorry, does this mean Thad Allen will be head of FEMA or just Katrina related duties?

Just Katrina. Brown is going back to Washington.

 

[DEPUTYDAWG]

Chertoff is saying this is because of possible other weather problems that Brown is being sent back??? Ya gotta laugh at some the excuses people can come up with.

Oh for Pete's sake! :doh:

How 'bout what my mom used to say (and I don't always listen to my mom, evidently!)...."Silence is golden." Chertoff best take that advice.

 

[DEPUTYDAWG]

Yep. Prolly since the press started asking about the discrepancies on his resume, and confirmed they were going to print them lol.

Yup, dang that media sometimes....

 

[tired.old.hag]

ABC news is reporting he's going to be removed completely.

"And sources have told ABC News that Brown is also expected to be out as head of the agency very soon."

Well, he certainly needs to be relieved of his duties. We must not forget that terrorists are watching how we react to this whole situation. The guy needs to go, and soon.

Good, now he just needs to be relieved of ALL duties.

Total complete agreement. Also someone, and by this I mean hopefully President Bush, needs to acknowledge that mistakes were made by Mr. Brown. I think this is imperative.

LOL it may be imperative but I bet it will never happen.

I know, I'm just a dreamer! :blushing:

 

[Linda7NJ]

My only comment, IT TOOK LONG ENOUGH! should have been days ago! Actually, he should have never had the job to begin with!

 

[BillyGoatGruff]

This is my first post here, so please bear with me. The article I read just said he was relieved of his duties related to Katrina. I'm afraid he will still be head of FEMA.

I'm still learning how to maneuver the boards, too. :waitasec:

He will be given the opportunity to fall on his sword (resign). If that does not occur within the next few days, look for him to be fired.

I agree with that assessment. Who do you think will replace him?

 

[BillyGoatGruff]

Who knows? Elizabeth Dole?

 

[concernedperson]

Who knows? Elizabeth Dole?

ROTFLMAO.

WASHINGTON - A beleaguered Mike Brown said Friday he doesn't know why he was removed from his onsite command of Hurricane Katrina relief efforts, but he does know the first thing he'll do when he returns to Washington.

[concernedperson]

Oh, yes mam! Let it be soon!

Is there a grass roots effort? Or a wait and see attitude?

 

[concernedperson]

He needs to go back to Oklahoma or wherever he is from. He is still clueless.I won't lose any sleep tonight because he may be displaced.

 

[Linda7NJ]

Poor guy...hasn't had a goodnights sleep or a good stiff drink for days.....my heart bleeds for him.:snooty:
