Unbelievable.
Who was also running the agency 5 years ago, during...9/11. And he did fine there. You never heard his name once during all that, right? Richard Clarke in Against All Enemies even mentions how thoroughly and competently he did his job.
YES, he completely fucked up Katrina, but he WAS competent to do his job. As has been displayed ever since, people who were higher-up than him in the protocol (I'm talking about Blanco as well as Bush) clothes-lined him in many ways. EVERYONE involoved in that was asleep at the wheel. Disgustingly so.

Sorry EMAsshole, but Joe Allbaugh was the FEMA head then. He resigned, largely in quiet protest, over the merging of FEMA with the DHS.
BTW, he was also a Republican political crony, but one with a talent for organization and administration.
FEMA handled the 9-11 situation better because they were already set up in NYC on the evening of 9-10-01, which someone stupidly admitted when they were on camera. Of course later they back pedaled and claimed it was because of Cheney's "scheduled drills".
In either case, the irony here is (if you buy the BCE official story) FEMA had much more advanced knowledge of Katrina than they did 9-11 and yet managed not to roll into New Orleans until 6 days after the fact.
Er not that any of this has anything to do with Armitage being the fall guy for Treasongate.

First of all, that guy has the WORST comb-over - and whatever you'd call that version of a combover - evereverever. Secondly, I'm baffled. Read your copy of Against All Enemies. Brown IS mentioned in there.
Back to Armitage...fine, I'll buy that he had no idea who Plame was. But what was he doing talking to reporters about her? At all? And right after Wilson's piece is published? And if this was sooooo squeeky clean, why would Fitzgerald keep the general investigation open for so long, with so many interviews with Rove, and controverisal jailtime for a reporter (and one for the NY Times, at that)?
Lord Have Mercy!
Do ya'll have food tasters to keep you from being poisioned? The conspiracy theories are running wild on this one.
Armitage is the one. It's done, over, kaput. He called her "Ms. Wilson". He should be cuffed and thrown in jail for outing a CIA operative. Fitzpatrick should be fired.
Again, our whole government (Dems and Reps) is a laughing stock thanks to party wars. And the longer the Dems harp on all these conspiracy theories the more ridiculous they look. If they keep it up, they'll lose again in Nov.
Time for the Dems to take the high road, stop talking about what the Reps are doing and start talking about what kind of plans they have for the future. Using no comparison to what the Reps have done. Ignore the Reps and just tell me what you're going to do.
That's what I'm waiting to hear anyway.

But she was helping to attain information. We need to handle our intelligence people with kid gloves. Even the secretaries who have no idea what they're looking at.
Although, the minute her and her husband showed up on Vanity Fair magazine, no less than a month after it all went down, the word, "GLORY HOUND" struck in my mind.

Besides, Plame was not an undercover operative at the time....for the THOUSANDTH time.
Incorrect as usual. This is another neocon myth designed to protect the treasonous criminals involved. It's been repeated by members of the media then repeated by known liars such as BigBlandBlowjob.
She was working the realm on Iranian nuclear operations and her exposure puts us all at risk.
