[EarlG]

8. I think I think Baghdad Brown said convention center, not superdome

Even so, if they learned about the convention center earlier today, where's the assistance?

[VolcanoJen]

16. Yes, he said they were very surprised to find out this morning...

... that 3,000 refugees were in the Convention Center.

The MSNBC anchor said, "But they were told to go there and wait for food and water. They've had nothing, for four days. They haven't just missed a meal or two. Nothing."

Baghdad Brown replied, "Well, I don't think anyone told them to go to the convention center, so I'm really not sure about all of that."

[ElectroPrincess]

23. You got that right EarlG

Bagdad Brown also pontificated words to the effect that four hours ago FEMA sent a "whole truckload" of MREs to that Convention Center. "They should arrive at any minute now!"

Then he waited for Lou Dobbs CNN show and told ole' Kitty that he did not know why people didn't evacuate when they were TOLD TO. Here's a hint: Poor, disenfranchised and NOT noticed by FEMA until the *liberal* media shoved the truth in your face. :puke:

30. Ah the joy of sporting the rose colored glasses of the privileged.

It must be so comforting to think that everyone CAN do something if they want to. Idiotic, but comforting.

[seabeyond]

29. oh bad me. bad bad me. yes you are right there is a difference

bad me. now how do i correct this on my post

[Pacifist Patriot]

32. Try to edit it if not too much time has passed.

Just look for the edit button near where you would ordinarily reply.

[seabeyond]

36. got it thanks. feel bad. but was surprised. everyone

knows about the superdome. i had been hearing convention center all day and was ust thinking dome

[tkmorris]

39. My understanding was

that the rufugees at the Convention Center were known of as well. It was reported on CNN that late in the hours before everything flooded the Center was opened and people were told if they could not get to the Dome they should go there. Can't confirm the truth of that, but they did say that the Convention Center had been opened as an official shelter prior to landfall.

[Spazito]

9. If that doesn't just tell it all!

Unbelievable!

[KamaAina]

10. Their heads were too far up their asses to see the news

I guess. And remember, even if you don't live on the "Gulf Coach", these are the same morans who are supposed to keep you safe!

[SofaKingLiberal]

11. nonplus

[Field Of Dreams]

12. Convention Center

He says he learned about the Convention Center today.

[Beaverhausen]

17. Ok- I don't know about the convention center either?

I'm afraid to ask but what happened there? I assume more starving refugees.

[Field Of Dreams]

33. Yes Convention Center

About 3000 people there also from what I've heard. FEMA prick was saying he thought people may have just gone there on their own with no direction from authorities. Probably thought they could get some assistance there and there wasn't any.

[AnnInLa]

13. and complained earlier today that LA official had JUST told him that

hospitals had to be evacuated NOW. This didn't occur to him and his agency without being told? Yall be afraid, very afraid...this is what will come take care of you in case of disaster.

[Media_Lies_Daily]

14. It's only been mentioned 24/7 on the networks. Idiot.

[Tinksrival]

15. SICK SICK LYING BASTARD

I can't believe what I just heard! Federal Government didn't know?????
I'm in Bermuda and I know!!!!!!!

[annabanana]

18. Michael D. Brown..... don't forget it....

He will be brought up on charges when the dust settles

[Usrename]

20. total dipshit n/t

[Just Me]

21. Then, he should have his ass fired, right now!!!!

Bullshit!!! I can't believe that!!!

[rodeodance]

28. face it--it may be true--guys on top seldom know what is going on -on the

ground.

[Pacifist Patriot]

24. Superdome or Convention Center?

Either way he's still an idiotic incompetent asshole, but I'd understand the convention center statement far more than one about the Superdome.

You know. This is such an obvious fuck up because usually at this point people are talking about the heroism, pulling together, human spirit, etc. I know we're hearing those stories, but we're hearing them in conjunction with a level of criticism I have just not witnessed before. If the grumbling and shrieking is starting this early you know they fucked it up.

[rodeodance]

31. he said he had only leaned of Con. Center --and dipached food and water

be for 5,ooo only. He has the numbers wrong.

[Esse Quam Videri]

26. this guy is an ultimate tool

was listening to him talking on CNN and when they asked why it was taking so long to get food and water to the people in N.O. he said it was like people were coming out of the woodwork. WTF it's like they're roaches or something. He said it was just an amazing phenomenon what was going on. Other than that his lips were moving but he said nothing. IMHO

[Esse Quam Videri]

34. Also said that they were

having to rescue the people who refused to leave and the people who decided to "hunker" down and ride out the storm

[seabeyond]

37. that was sick. acting like there really arent deaths, people are

finding their loved ones. their isnt any need for sorrow, all is well. that was just disgusting too

[McCamy Taylor]

35. Moron should resign.

[MO_Dem]

38. Moron will probably get a promotion

when he should be FIRED!
