Mikaela asks:
Check out Michael Brown from ABC News giving a speech about emergency response to a bunch of meteorologists at a fucking ski resort (yes, they invited and hired this jackass to give them a speech! I want them to hire me to give them a speech about why they are stupid for asking a discredited and murderous ass to give them a speech. Come on, I could use the money! I'd do a heckuva job.):
Brown said Wednesday he fell short of conveying the magnitude of the disaster wrought by the nation's deadliest hurricane, and calling for help.
"I should have demanded the military sooner," Brown, former head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, told a gathering of broadcast and National Weather Service meteorologists at a ski resort in the Sierra Nevada.
But Brown, who was relieved from his command in the hurricane region and stepped down from FEMA in September, said it was time to learn from Katrina's aftermath to make things better in the future.
"I think it's important to realize that all of us made mistakes. … After a while you get a different perspective," Brown told The Associated Press after his speech. "I still do believe that things weren't working too well down there."
Brown said he doesn't want to play the blame game.
"Let's figure out what went wrong and what we can do to make it work better next time," he said. "It may not be a Katrina, but it may be a big wildfire out West next time."
How can he not be embarrassed? Where is his sense of shame? Does entitlement really extend so far as to make him believe he still has the right to say ANYTHING publically about emergency response?
It's one thing to take your resigned self into the private sector as a consultant to milk their cash cow if they're stupid enough to hire you as an "expert."
It's another thing to continue speaking publically as though you have a goddamn thing to say about improving emergency response.
I am outraged. How can he ...? How? What the hell have we come to when the depth and breadth of your incompetence that led to thousands of deaths is exposed, not to mention the deadly irresponsibility of those who put you in power because of political nepotism, and you still don't believe yourself to be discredited?
If no one else is going to say it, I will:
Hey, Brownie! SHUT UP. Hang your head in shame as your deadly failure warrants and GO AWAY QUIETLY.
What's WITH these people?
