Conservative weekly: Chertoff has 'only a few days left'

RAW STORY

According to an article at a top Conservative weekly, Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff has "only a few days left," RAW STORY has found.

On Thursday, former FEMA director Michael D. Brown said that Chertoff deserved to be fired for his performance during Hurricane Katrina, and another official who oversaw the federal response, Matthew Broderick, director of operations for DHS, resigned.

In the aftermath of the public revelation of the presidential "teleconference" and mounting criticism of the performance of Michael Chertoff, Administration sources told HUMAN EVENTS today that the secretary of Homeland Security has "only a few days left" in the Bush Cabinet.

As one source acquainted with the former federal prosecutor and U.S. appellate judge said under promise of anonymity, "They will give < Chertoff > a little time so it won't hurt his reputation too much, but he's probably got only a few days left."

1. Cry me a river

He was deliberately awol during Katrina, if he had been a officer in the armed services
he would be in the brig right now.

[bullimiami]

4. he should be tried for criminal negligence, his stupid boss too.

[MissWaverly]

5. I am with you

the oddest thing about the Bush administration is that what we always thought were crimes
suddenly had rationales which made them exceptions. Baloney, what mercy did those poor old
people have in the nursing homes have as they were left in their beds to drown; alone and
frightened.

[RazzleDazzle]

8. Yes, I'm still remembering his vicious "blame the victim" response

in the immediate aftermath of Katrina, wherein he said they were told to evacuate and NOT doing so was clearly a mistake.

Obvious conclusion: they, therefore, deserved their fate.

[MissWaverly]

10. yes, blame the victim

how do you evacuate w/o a car, money and a hurricane raging in

[MADem]

2. CNN had a fast blurb on the rumor, too n/t

[rodeodance]

6. really?

[MADem]

16. Yep, they mentioned it, they mentioned a cancelled speaking engagement

and they mentioned that they asked his office, and his office responded that the cancellation was due to a conflict and that he was meeting with Mexican officials. The office denied that he was resigning. That was all they said. Took about twenty seconds.

3. Now THAT will be a book worth READING....LOL....

...the REAL truth comes out!!!

[rodeodance]

7. kickypoo poo

[FreedomAngel82]

9. Interesting

I haven't heard this anywhere else. Hmm. I wonder what's going on too.

[laugle]

11. Thank goodness we won't have to look at that CADAVER FACE anymore...

[Panda1]

12. Update...contradiction from a "senior admin. official"

But you're right, they usually spin it both ways, then pick sides.
And laugle, CADAVER is a perfect description of his revolting face.

UPDATE -- 8:08 p.m.: A senior administration official is refuting my source’s comments that Chertoff’s days are numbered.

“The President offered strong words of support for Secretary Chertoff on Tuesday in an interview with Elizabeth Vargas. Secretary Chertoff is serving in one of the most difficult positions in government and he is doing an excellent job.”

Sure would be nice to know the identities of the "senior officials" who leak the trial balloons and then take them back.
It seems like Brownie wiggled himself off the hook a bit today and Chertoff is next for some anger directed his way. I hope. He's an asshole. 'Course he'll have to take a number; they're ALL assholes.

13. Brownie proved to me that he's smarter than Chertoff & junior combined.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

14. People are starting to question whether he was treated fairly or not...

...and when you think about it, the ability to stir debate NEVER comes from the "powerless." If you can get people TALKING, you have INFLUENCE.

Maybe Brownie wasn't doing a HECK of a job...but recent events, videos, documents...these show that maybe he wasn't the punch line to Bush's sick Katrina joke after all.

Maybe Lord Cakesucker misunderestimated his ability to "take one for the team."

15. 'only a few days left'

It looks like to me the zombie faced freak died years ago!
