"It is very important that time is allowed for Mr. Brown to eat dinner"
"Brownie", like his boss who decided to golf and have a birthday party for John McCain while people died in New Orleans, was too busy making dinner plans to worry about the people drowning.
Since 'Brownie' testified under oath that he wasn't aware of the magnitude of the problems in New Orleans until several days into it and now we find out that he in fact learned of this the day before hurricane Katrina, it looks like we'll have another Republican being indicted soon.
Aren't these Republicans sooooo compassionate? Bunch of pathetic losers!
WASHINGTON, Oct. 20 - It was on the day before Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast, after thousands of people had packed the Superdome, that the lone FEMA worker in New Orleans sent his first plea for help.
"Issues developing at the Superdome," the official, Marty J. Bahamonde, wrote in an agency e-mail message released Thursday by Congressional investigators. "The medical staff at the dome says they will run out of oxygen in about two hours."
Mr. Bahamonde sent a series of messages as the hours and days passed, desperation growing. Most startling, he told the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on Thursday, was that his supervisors in Washington did not seem to understand. In a series of e-mail messages in which he warned of worsening problems, he was told that the director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency needed time to eat dinner at a restaurant in Baton Rouge, La., and to have a television interview.
"It was sad, it was inhumane, it was heartbreaking, and it was so wrong," Mr. Bahamonde said, of the conditions and the response. "There was a systematic failure at all levels of government to understand the magnitude of the situation."
