Haley (WHORE) Barbour fighting with Miles O'Brien on CNN NOW!!!
He is whoring for the feds, while O'Brien is asking why more military assets were not pre positioned.

1. Chertoff took a cussing a while ago
from Soledad? This is good ..where were the Pentagon and Military given the fact that they knew a Cat 5 was heading that way? Great question Miles.

2. I hate Barbour and at this point despise Larry King
I've heard King repeatedly say how good friends him and Barbour are.

Nice to see what kind of company you keep Larry, you worthless whore.

Good little Freeper to the core, even when the people of his state are suffering.

4. Haley Barbour will defend the bush administration to the bitter end...
instead of screaming loud and clear for his people in Mississippi. What a total bag of gas he is.

6. If Clinton were in office
I'm sure he would have no trouble criticizing the response from the federal government. And it's not him or his family that's suffering from Bush's incompetence.

9. The difference between Barbour and the Gov of LA
was jaw dropping. The Gov of LA was talking about people and the loss of life whenever she was interviewed. While Barbour was only concerned about the damage that had been done to property and business interests. This guy is all heart, not.

14. There you have the basic difference between Dems & Repugs
Democrats' priority: people
Repugs' priority: businesses and property

15. Local S. LA TV and radio stations reporting every press conference
given by state officials, and they occur pretty often. Congressman Vitter (R-LA) ALWAYS begins by praising bush. He says over and over, "Pres bush gets it, he really gets it." Spends at least 2 minutes praising bush before he begins giving info. I am not exaggerating. Senator Landrieu does not do this, and, when Vitter or the FEMA official ARE doing this EVERY time, there is a look of frustration on Gov. Blanco's and Sen. Landrieu's faces. I cannot tell you how much the Repuke Senator and the FEMA officials are praising the feds and bush...it is a joke, and the repuke sheeple down here are catching on.

18. And Bush has the unmitigated GALL to lecture people about
not making this POLITICAL. It seems to me that the people who are being the most POLITICAL are these whores who use press conferences as an opportunity to shill for Bush rather than provide people with critical information.

10. The press is turning on Chimpy's Regime and GOP thugs
Just saw Mr. and Mrs. O'Brien (not married to each other) reaming out Chertoff and that clown "Howdy" Barbour.

Harry Smith was none too nice to the feds or state responders earlier this morning on CBS.

And let's not forget Shepard Smith growing a soul yesterday and pleading for help for -- shock -- a few hundred people stranded on a highway in 95-degree heat, high humidity, and no water, with kids and mothers passing out (seeing the not-so-benign neglect caused by the very people he whores for).

As Hunter Thompson would say, the banshee is howling this morning, howling for blood, and will only be satiated by the taste of a few dozen top pols.

11. yeap, covering bush's ass as the puke he is
each time barbour is making shit up obrien was asking hard questions that pissed barbour off because his excuses were not being accepted.

barbour saying he did not want an argument because obrien did not believe him just showed how shallow barbour is, and how god damned scared republicans are about this affecting their gutless hero from crawford.

they know who is responsible for this being as bad as it is, funding cuts to FEMA, to levee works, to no national guard .. its all in bush's and the GOP's lap and they are scared shitless of the consequences.

they are tring to stop the conventioanl wisdom from solidifying in the american mind that the GOP and bush fucked up, fucked up bad.

12. Why are you surprised at Barbour?
After all, he was Chairman of the RNC before he was elected governor or Mississippi.

My husband and I were talking about this last night and I don't have a clue about planning for disasters, et al. My first question was why didn't FEMA get the supplies they knew that would be needed in place before this storm hit?

It's not like Katrina snuck up on anybody. Hell, I had a bad feeling last Friday night about this storm and I've never experienced a hurricane in my life.

Face it everyone, the Pukes are gonna make every excuse in the book for Chimpy's criminal behavior and the sad part about it is, with our non-existant media, they'll probably get away with it.

22. Saw it, also. Had to turn it off. It's hard to understand barbour,
he sounds as if he has a mouth full of shit. Barbour would defend the monkey even if he had killed his family and burned down his house. WTF is the matter with these repugs? Can they really be that fucking stupid?

20. Was listening to it on XM
I was livid at Barbour. All the smug asshole wanted to talk about was the loss of property and damage, not the people. When Miles called him out on it, I was shocked.

Barbour dodged and dodged, and ended it with "nitpicking won't help nothin'". Sure it will, it will help save lives in the future. But in Bush logic, planning and learning means nothing unless it has to do with lining their own pockets.

In the past 24 hours I have heard Harry Smith, Shepard Smith, Bob Scheafer, Miles O'Brien and Soledad ask some tough and pointed questions to the jerk offs. All of the responses are the same, they get mad and you can hear it in their voice. Accountability means nothing!

21. RFK Jr. has exposed Barbour's role in killing anti-global warming efforts
Barbour, who had served as RNC Chair and Bush campaign strategist, was now representing the president’s major donors from the fossil fuel industry who had enlisted him to map a Bush energy policy that would be friendly to their interests. His credentials ensured the new administration’s attention.
