Did y'all see Claude Allen, *'s new, black hurricane point man on CSPAN?

[CottonBear]

This guy was busy,busy, busy carrying water for * and defending Chertoff this morning on CSPAN Washington Journal. (For some reason, he set my gaydar off too.) Anyway, he completely avoided talking about dead bodies and the total failure of FEMA and Homeland Security. Lies, lies, lies. :(

He lied his ass off during the whole segment. What really made me angry was when a caller asked about the people suffering and dying on the bridges and highway overpasses and why the buses were held up and not sent to rescue them. He said that all of those people were put there by the helicopter rescuers. Right. :grr: I suppose * thinks blacks will like him more if he has a black spokesman.

1. Thats why Bush has Condi around

he thinks mere skin color is enough to fool people into thinking he actually cares about anything

[CottonBear]

2. I don't think he's fooling very many people at this point

except for maybe his supporters/apologists who are complete fundy wingnuts.

I doubt he'll ever be able to go (or even want to go) where there are lots of poor, displaced black people. (And just think, Bill Clinton's offices are in Harlem, NYC!) If he wasn't before, he is now the most hated person on the planet. Hands down. I suppose he'll have to imprison himself on that stupid "ranch" for the rest of his sorry life in order to avoid being cursed at and protested wherever he goes.

3. yes, I witnessed Claude of the furrowed brow and 'who me' demeanor

lie and lie again.

and he said "the administration is well aware of" so many times you knew it was Rove speak.

Claude is a W.H. Domestic Policy Adviser. what are his qualifications for this job of domestic adviser? wonder how much he is getting paid to lie?

4. Unfortunately, I think a stronger word should be used than "lie"

I will start:

"whore" comes to mind pretty quick.

I have some others, but it is not my place at all to use them. I will leave that to those who have the right.

5. I had to leave the room when he started chiming in on the blame

the victims that a caller had started. Then I heard my 15 yr. old yelling, "You're an ugly, scummy liar." Needless to say, he had little appeal to anyone here.

6. *gag* *choke* *gag* made me ill. I hate that stupid smirk too.

I turned the channel.

7. He set off my gaydar!

I saw him - a black, gay GOPer - he must be one confused person.

PS This was not intended to insults gays or blacks. GOPers are on their own. ;)

8. black hurricane point man?

IT GON RAIN!



(This is a character from the cartoon, Family Guy. I know it's on Fox, but the creators are fairly liberal. If you look closely, the dog (Brian) has a Kucinich bumpersticker on his car.)

9. he was despicable....

If I could have gotten through, my question would have been:

You're black, and probably gay, so why do you willing prostitute yourself for George Bush?

[CottonBear]

10. I would've liked to ask him that too. What a tool he is. Ugh. n/t
