How much you wanna bet that FEMA's Michael Brown gets a promotion?
I bet $100 that he gets a promotion within a year. Anyone want to bet me?

I know he will get promoted because he is a proven failure and a fuck up and in Bush's companies (the US being his latest venture), people that can't do get promoted. It's the same old business plan many failed companies have used.

So who wants to take the bet?

7. Probably, I see this coming...
It's all Browns fault. He will either resign or be fired and then we can all go back to our lives, safe and secure in the knowlege that bad man who caused all these problems is gone.

"Bad intelligence", and all that.

9. That was my first reaction as well.
Knowing how much Bush hates to be wrong and do what Democrats think is practical, I had the promotion thought.

I mean he did promote Condi, Bolton and the torture czar, Gonzales - three complete fuck-ups.

15. Perhaps even a Medal Of Freedom...
He's surely as big a failure as Tenet, Franks and Bremer.

18. Not this time. Midterm elections in 2006 and the Repub's are going
to insist that someone take the fall. Chertoff and Brown are better than Bush, as far as they are concerned.
