Thank you Admiral - An Admiral is giving an update to the press and |
|
was asked how federalizing the operation would help. His response was that it would make NO DIFFERENCE in their operations although he knew it was a big point of debate between the Pres, VP, Chertoff, Rummy, and Gonzalez.
That is what they were debating for days while people were dying. No additional actions from the Governor was required for the help from the Feds. They just argued over stupid bureaucratic details while people died.
He just blew away their excuse for blaming this disaster on the Governor. He also showed that the battle was at the very top of the Administration.
Thanks, Admiral.

4. I'll copy my synopsis to your thread. |
|
But now on MSNBC, they are talking to a Republican Representative who is saying this needs to be federalized and all the hold up was at the state, the state has been ineffective, etc.
FEMA is supposed to be helping do everything, you dumbass, but they aren't.

2. The Admiral appears to be a stand up guy. |
|
The papers effect his transfer to command a flotilla of rafts on the Euphrates are being typed as we speak.

3. Is this also the reason why |
|
the medical ship was docked off-shore rather than put into service? Why the trucks of fuel and water/ice were turned back? Why the food and water wasn't distributed properly? Why the porta-pots came in after the fact? On and on, ad nauseum?
Do the oil rigs/refineries have anything to do with this power grab?
Why does, "Let them eat cake!" keep popping into my head?
