7. So far these people look pretty lame.
They are trying to sound responsible and are asking to stop the blame game. Senators are asking that people register with FEMA. It is amazing that FEMA still has any credibity left for people to want to still deal with them, but I guess no one else can.

They are asking for what everyone has been asking - someone in charge down there. That would be a good idea, it has been over a week.

3. OOOOOOh, so NOW, we shouldn't be doing finger pointing.
Of course they don't want finget pointing. Most of them will be pointing at them. These people are a disgrace to our country. Keep on cutting programs and taxes for the rich.

6. All people affected should register with FEMA to ensure they receive help
getting their pensions etc. The most ineffective organization is going to help you? Disgusting.

5. When they say, "Stop playing the blame game!" you say, "Stop the cover-up!
Spread it! When they say, "Stop playing the blame game!" you say, "Stop the cover-up! Investigate now!"

13. I think it's funny...
I like watching people get marched out to flush their own careers down the toilet in the name of party loyalty...

I didn't get a chance to see this. Were any of them from the South?
