We should all thank the Lord that Brownie was doing a 'heckuva job' last time around. The Decider and Brownie - what a team!

[Observer]

They were doing to well and figured they had to shoot themselves in the foot. FEMA STFU.

Hey, Dan's got the integrity to call'm as he see's'm. Thank goodness for that.

What a freak'n joke. I long for the days of Ronald Reagan and Bush 41. At least their administration knew how to put on the thin veneer of dignity. Also, balls.

[narciso]

Really, Islamo, you long for the days of Gen, Lou Guiffrida, formerly of the Cal. Natl. Guard, veteran of Operation Cable Splicer and OP Rex 84;

[Wahoo Willie Sez:]

What a bunch of maroons. Too bad Slick Willie made it so hard to fire government employees because heads should roll. Scuttlebutt sez that they were prentending the were demonrats talking to the MSM. Geez, not even smart enough to pretend it was a trainig evolution................

[Purple Avenger]

Fake but accurate.

This press conference must have seemed like one of JKK's. The reporters didn't like Kennedy. They adored him. He was like a king (Camelot) who treated the ink-stained, and in most cases in those days working-class-background, wretches as if they were his buddies. It didn't hurt JFK either that the top man at Wapo, Bradley, was one of JFK's best friends.

Sorry, the sock puppet look-alike above was me.

[Supersocialisto Teat Chappers]

S'awright. Happens to the best of us. :P

[Captain Joe]

Half those idiots in FEMA bought their degrees on the internet. Some were found out and had to move. The idiot who came up with the fake news conference needs to be fired.

Thats almost as bad as the Decider's plastic Thanksgiving turkey!

[Fred Beloit]

"the Decider's plastic Thanksgiving turkey!" That was for you vegans, Boob, you ingrate you.

[templar knight]

It has been proven that the bird Bush served was real, yet the mindless continue to repeat the fake bird story over and over, as if a lie told often enough will become the truth. Give it up, boob, it will never happen, but you will continue to look like a mindless, delusional jerk.

Oh, yeah, that's what you are. Haha! Proceed.

Another case (Tim) Blair cites is of the "plastic turkey". Last year George Bush flew to Iraq for a Thanksgiving meal with his troops and was photographed holding a platter of golden turkey. It was a real turkey, reported the Washington Post, dressed and primped for display at the front of the mess hall, in Army tradition.

Newspapers around the world called it a "plastic turkey" and a myth was born, which bloggers have taken delight in hammering ever since. Finally, nine months later, said Blair, the bloggers were victorious and The New York Times published a correction.

Bush Admin stages phony press conference.

Dog Bites Man.

[Fred Beloit]

That great sage scar writes:

"Bush Admin stages phony press conference." Of course it was FEMA scar is talking about, not the White House. He could just as well have blamed God.

One of God's unruly children stages phony press conference. God of course is embarrassed.
