OH CRAP did Ted Koppel hammer FEMA lackey. He was about to CRY

[Proud2BAmurkin]

Accountability. Been a long time.

1. He is that corporate attorney, right? that little Fema punk?

[Don Claybrook]

7. that's him

[pamela]

2. I saw that!

That was amazing! Koppel was relentless and would not let that guy get away with the talking points he has been spouting all day. I thought the Fema guy looked furious towards the end. Go Ted!!!

[Kali]

3. More details for the tv-less!

Please?

[linazelle]

6. Guy said he just found out about people being in convention

center today. Koppel said, "don't you watch TV?" <oh snap!!>

Guy said help was on the way. Koppel said it's been X days, how long is it going to take.

Koppel added that "you guys play wargames" and asked knowing that, if we should give them a pass being this unprepared.

More...perhaps will be added by others here.

12. The FEMA pud kept talking about the things they were doing

and Ted kept returning to the subject of what they had already done. Five full days after the hurricane struck, they still hadn't evacuated the people. They should have started helping the poor people evacuate 2 or 3 days prior, but they didn't. They were too busy cutting taxes for Bush's rich friends.

4. What there the issues Ted was pushing?

[Proud2BAmurkin]

5. "Why didn't the Natl Guard order people onto buses BEFORE storm"

to avoid this disastrous "rescue" mission

[NRaleighLiberal]

8. Wow...Ted beat the absolute shit out of that weenie....

He actually created a great list of anti-repug talking points. The heat needs to be kept on - the pugs need to be whacked repeatedly every day....no way can they be allowed to escape and spin this the other way.

[FuzzySlippers]

9. FEMA punk said that nobody anticipated

there would be that many people who didn't evacuate. Ted said that they knew there were 100,000 people in NO who were "dirt poor" and hadn't the means to evacuate. Ted really kicked the crap out of the guy. It was a thing of beauty.

[Delphinus]

10. How beautiful

that he laid it out so clearly. Thank you Ted!

[killbotfactory]

11. Bush doesn't think the poor count...

What more evidence do you need?

[young_at_heart]

14. Is that why Bush was sent to California?

The Gulf was being destroyed while he ate cake and played the guitar in Cali!

13. Poor Mr. Brown (hole) - he was gonna weep

He ought to weep - his lame excuses are just not good enough...
