Intelligence Failure (again!)

[BurgherHoldtheLies]

Beyond the blaming of mere mayors and state government, there is also a new RW talking point (used by Newt Gingrich last night on Faux): The POTUS wasn't adequately informed of the situation last week.

So, as with 911 and WMD's, it is once again a failure of intelligence?!?!?!

In the real world, if a chief executive consistently has major failures would it be acceptable to the stockholders to say "but...but...I didn't know"?

Maybe we should investigate WHY DIDN'T YOU ASK THE RIGHT QUESTIONS, THEN?

It's your job to know!

1. "Henceforth all Hurricanes......

will be required to announce their flight and seat numbers!"

4. Good catch....

My talking point today is "Mayor Nagin did the best he could with the resources he had".....

sorry DUers if you're sick of hearing this already, but I miss My Posts on Level 3 ! Plus, hey, it's so Rovian to keep repeating myself til the peeps believe it, right?

Ok, going back in my corner to rock some more :silly:

5. Impossible

Since the media wasn't embedded and controlled by the pentagon, it was impossible to squelch the flow of info. The whole world knew, only an imbecile would be oblivious. Well, yes.

Now, if the country had the same access to view Iraq...Do you have something to say Senator Kerry?
