more of the feds' "blame game"

Considering that the feds were the ones who coined the phrase "the blame game" as a defense for their obviously atrocious handling of the Katrina disaster, they sure do engage in the game all too often!

Utterly vile!
And believe it or not:

CBS News says Michael Brown rehired as FEMA consultant
CBS News' Bob Schieffer just announced that the Federal Emergency Management Agency has rehired ex-FEMA chief Michael Brown-- as a consultant to evaluate the agency's response to the disaster!

So, he is going to evaluate his own work! That's sure to be objective!

Brown had been shopping his resume in Washington. Wrote U.S. News' Washington Whispers last week: "Ex-FEMA Administrator Michael Brown seems to be doing for his career what he did for the beleaguered agency. Less than a week after FEMA's dismal Hurricane Katrina response forced Brown out of the agency, he has been shopping his resume to headhunters and Washington PR firms. And it's not working. "He's radioactive," said one exec. An ally of Brownie in the PR world said he should have waited a month before starting his job hunt. "It's just a bad play."

Is he surprised that he's having a hard time getting a new job? Does he think that people don't know that he f'k'd up majorly and that people died because of it?!
Damn, everyone associated with bush thinks that they can do no wrong - or at least that it doesn't matter how much wrong they do!

And an interesting aside regarding this from Eschaton:

And now I will leave you to guess where this bit of gossip came from, because I promised not to tell. But one of the above-mentioned folks called me this afternoon to say that according to sources within the Enquirer itself, the source for Bush's drinking story is -- an incredibly pissed-off, recently scapegoated head of a federal agency who thinks that BushCo. done him wrong.
