Ding Dong: Brown Gone, NEXT!!!!!

The buck stops at Bush.

Isn't this the first time the Bush Maladministration has ever removed any of their unfit to lead pals?

Let's keep rolling, who should we focus on next?

Congratulations DU and all others that kept the pressure on these clowns.:toast: :bounce: :party: :bounce: :toast: :loveya: :toast: :toast: :toast: :toast:

1. I don't see what the party is all about. Brown ain't gone.
If anything this is a promotion. He's still the head of FEMA. He didn't lose his job. He's overseeing the big picture.

2. He is just in a holding pattern


The pressure made him do this, he is "off the post."

Witt just said that ,"it was a good thing."

5. Bring Um On!!!


This must have pissed Bush off to have to "bump him up to bounce Brown out."

Especially when Brownie was "doing a good job" a few days ago.

6. BROWN is NOT fired
Keep pushing!!!

Two main arguments for the Congresscritters:

1) If he's not qualified to run the operation on the ground, how can he be qualified to be the big picture coordinator?
2) Aren't we all in danger for the next catastrophe if there's an incompetent at the head of FEMA?

Get CALLING!!!

8. The big picture that he will see is the

view from his picture window in his do nothing job.

Of course he will still get paid a bonus.

Bush would never want him to ever blow the whistle on them,never.

12. Bullshit: Insufficient
He remains the FEMA head and could put YOUR life at risk with his ineptitude the next time disaster strikes. He MUST be fired.

He is not out, and pretending he is puts lives at risk. Get him out of there NOW.

14. I'm with you but I doubt that will happen

BUT, we can keep pushing.

I'm more into letting him look out the window while we focus on Jerkoff and Rove and Cheney and Rumsfeld and and and

This administration will not FIRE someone! Maybe when hell freezes over, on second thought, probably not even then!

15. Bingo! This is the first time

that I can remember that they EVER did what the polls and public asked them to do.

He was not "fired" but he was removed from that position.

For the BUSH CROOKS that is a BIG change in operational procedure.

13. Golden Parachute Anyone?
Brownie's the walking dead. This move gets him off camera and you can see the spin machine in action here. They're bringing in a "take charge" dude that will be another Honore. The RNC is fighting to inundate every news hour now with their own events and spin...keeping the negative stories off the air as long as possible.

Brownie now heads back to DC and I suspect we'll hear he submits his resignation shortly. Nope, not fired, he will resign and then vanish into the Allbaugh/K-Street abyss with a nice cozy job to shut him up and keep him outta sight.

Once again, this regime will pass the buck on taking responsibility as it feels it shows "weakness". Instead, it's showing just even greater incompetence. Let's see how quick the corporate media stays on the Rove meme or tries to call him on it.

16. The water is out of the dike if we just keep pushing

It shows that the "Bring It On" President had nothing to Bring but hot air.
