The reporter asked him why FEMA and the federal government had not gotten water or food to the thousands of people at the convention center in NO, that there were dead bodies and people were in a panic. His response was that he wasn't going to respond just because there were "rumors" of people that were in trouble. The reporter told him they weren't rumors, they had reporters on site and there were photos on the internet. Chertoff said he didn't know if there were people there or not. But he had gotten food to the people in the Superdome so he felt like they were making great progress. A few hours later his spokesperson called NPR and said they found out there were thousands of people at the convention center and action was being taken.

The man's an idiot.
