Question. If Bush worked in the Private Sector and

appointed someone incompetent (like Brown at Feema) wouldn't he be liable for all kinds of criminal action?

1. If he didn't instantly fire him, YES!

Haven't you ever heard "Don't do that, it's make ME look bad" from your boss???? I have!

Shrub could crawl out from under this mess if he fired Brown and Chertoff and appointed replacements who had a good reputation in disaster recovery...but he'll never do that!

2. Bush would never be

in that position because he would be no higher than mail clerk or garbage collector.

3. Bush has turned every company he owned into a disaster......

he knows nothing of leadership......but there is one thing that is increasingly certain, more people want

4. Probably not

It happens more often than not in the "private sector".

Incompetence is the norm -- that's where these assholes came from after all.

5. I would think that if he was responsible for hiring the

administrator - and hired someone obviously not competent - that a disaster that happened on that person's watch would leave the whole company liable.
