1. It isn't just you. He still doesn't get it and is pissed if anyone
questions him at all. Unbelievable.

or a bush lite? In any event, the arrogance of everyone in this administration is appalling. They're where they are to serve the people, not vice-versa. Cocky bastards! :grr:

5. Yeah...
...and here we thought he was merely an incompetent crony. Thankfully he now has a stage to show us what a real fuckwad he is.

7. While I cannot say I was willing to give Brown the benifit of the doubt...
I did tune into the hearing with something of an open mind and sympathy for someone who was in a job he was untrained to do because of the political cronyism of the Administration.

However, after watching his performance in front of the committee, I am now of the opinion that Michael Brown is an arrogant, whiny asshole who deserves every bit of scorn and blame he gets.

18. If he had admitted his failures and come clean
or at least tried to make amends, then I might have felt some sympathy for the guy

28. I think "brownie" has the most going for it.
I mean, Bush could not have picked a more damaging nickname.

It just underscores the "brownie points" appointments.

It plurals nicely, so we get things like "How many more Brownies are there in top agencies?"

Brownshirts, brown-nosers... man did Bush screw the pooch with that.

I guess it sucks for the junior girl scouts. But they'll survive. The parents will just have to explain to them that America doesn't hate the "real Brownies" somehow.

22. Typical Republican. "I'm the victim, those victims are the bad guys!"
That's their credo: "It's someone else's fault."

24. Brownie is like his master
Brownie is just like the master who appointed him. You know the saying, Birds of a feather flock together.
Also keep in mind that he was just put back on the federal feeding bowl yesterday; yup he was made a consultant. I think the money should be more accurately described as a bribe to make sure he sings the right song.
He's on message all right, a message written for him by the WH.

27. It's just you
He's leaving some room for Dick Cheney's reported giant schlong. So now, he's not yet a complete asshole.

29. Dumped it all on Louisiana as a bunch of incompetents
Now ain't that something? Yup, Louisiana messed up so bad there was nothing he could do to help out. Thank goodness Texas had such competent people. People were able to evacuate the Houston area flawlessly. Would have helped tho had someone thought to early on direct the opposite traffic to be blocked off and not wait nearly 24 hours. I heard that it takes "time" to coordinate the closing of the ramps. You would think a few phone calls could have accomplished that in at least an hour.

Since only one or 2 Dems showed up he must be feeling good about this hearing, being of the same stripe and all.
