WASHINGTON — No one had any hard questions for the deputy administrator
of FEMA, an agency deeply tarnished by its delayed action after
Hurricane Katrina, when he held a news conference Tuesday to talk about
the California wildfires.
"Are you happy with FEMA's response so far?" someone asked.
Indeed, the deputy administrator was. "I am very happy with FEMA's
response so far," responded Vice Adm. Harvey E. Johnson Jr.
The news conference looked like a success in the Bush administration's
effort this week to demonstrate it could respond competently to a disaster.
On Friday, however, the agency admitted that the softball questions were
posed by FEMA employees, not reporters.
The White House was not happy with FEMA's response.

Surprise, surprise, imagine FEMA conducting propaganda just like Bush's
Town Hall Meetings where all the participants were carefully screened to
eliminate Americans who didn't support Bush's policies and press
conferences where the questions are rigged and male prostitutes get
press credentials.

Sorta like the FOX debate last week where they issued 3,000 tickets, but
1,000 went to Romney and 1,000 went to Giuliani. Also Frank Luntz, the
porcine pundit who allegedly found 23 "undecided" voters for his "focus
group", stacked it with Bush acolytes such as Douglas Maher (the even more
porcine fellow who insulted Ron Paul and yapped on and on about Hillary).
If you watch the pre- and post-debate clips you'll see Luntz actually moved
Maher up to the front row. Maher was also involved in the 2000 Florida
debacle, and brags on his freerepublic.com profile that he "works for a PR
firm that delivered 4 elections for Jeb and George".
BTW, most primary polls innocently call the people they interview "likely
primary voters". Do you know how they determine who a "likely primary
voter" is? They check to see who voted in the previous presidential
primary. For Republicans, that was 2004. Considering that George W. Bush
was unopposed, this means that the audience Gallup, Rasmussen, etc. are
using for this year's primary is 100% Bushies. No wonder Rudy "Freedom is
about authority" Giuliani and Mitt "Double Gitmo and bomb Iran now" Romney
lead these alleged "polls" while a real man like Ron Paul is being grossly
under-reported in these polls while he continues to crush his opposition
where everyone is equally able to participate (post-debate polls, straw
polls, etc.).

I don't know anybody who is or would vote for Paul and further I don't
know anybody who even knows who Paul is. I know some dims and some
repubs so don't say I don't know. Paul is a nobody. If you want
hillary for your next president then vote for paul...plain and simple.

Name one issue where any of the other Republicans can neutralize Hitlery
the way Ron Paul can on the war(s).

That was such a cheesy thing to do. Why didn't they just have a real press
conference with a roomful of guys like this:

Because that would be too honest by their standards. The whole
administration is staffed with people who believe that politics is
nothing but a constant campaign, so naturally they're liars.

Sounds like one of Mrs. Clintons campaign stops, or interviews on one of her
friends TV shows LOL
