Forget the news reports

SteveS — 9/27/2005 6:00:53 PM (archived)

It's becoming obvious that the news reports don't reflect the actual occurrences.

I've been watching the hearings Brown has undergone and it's clear to me that from what I have heard he did everything that FEMA was supposed to do with what the have available. With that said I haven't heard every word because of work so feel free to fill me in.

The democrats on the committee have failed miserable to put the blame on Brown so far. They are trying to blame Brown for the local governments lack of organazation and command of where to send needed help. They are trying to blame Brown for not sending supplies to areas of New Orleans that were not requested by New Orleand government something that FEMA is not supposed to do.
