Q One last question. The person who says that he found out about the Convention Center seeing it on the media — that is to say the FEMA Director — is still in place. Is that satisfactory that somebody would have responded like that?
MR. McCLELLAN: Again, this is getting into — we’re somewhat engaged in a blame game. We’ve got to —
Q It’s not a blame game. That’s accountability —
MR. McCLELLAN: Terry, we’ve got to —
Q It’s accountability.
MR. McCLELLAN: Yes.
Q Is “Brownie” still doing a “heck of a job,” according to the President?
MR. McCLELLAN: We’ve got to continue to do everything we can in support of those who are involved in the operational aspects of this response effort. And that’s what we’re going to do. There will be plenty of time —
They’ve been stirred awake a few times over the last few years… and I’m not naive enough to believe they’ll continue to ask the tough questions of this incompetent administration, but let’s take notice of it while it lasts…

I say fire the FEMA director. The lack of an adequete response at the federal level was pitiful at best. Hell lets fire the governer of La, because she wouldn’t even call for mandatory evacuation until Bush called her and said do it. Lets also fire the mayor, because he sat by with 200 busses sitting during a mandatory evacuation, and didnt help people leave. Heck he cooped them up in the superdome with no adequete security and didnt even have enough food or water there.
I say lets fire all three. Are you all with me?
