Dickhead of the Week - Michael Brown
I had a hunch Brownie would run away with it this week. He really did a heck of a job laying the blame on others.
From what I can gather, Brownie's testimony ran a little something like this: "It was the governor! It was the mayor! It was the Department of Homeland Security! It wasn't FEMA, and it sure as heckfire wasn't me! Waaaaaahhhh!"
He even acknowledged that he knows how to use email. "See? I knew it would be a big one, and I even told people! So where the heck was everyone? Hello? I mean, FEMA can't do everything!"
To add intrigue and outrage to the matter, there are a few conflicting stories around the internet(s) about Brownie's current role at FEMA, which should be "no role at all." Maybe he's still on the payroll, maybe he's gone, and maybe he's been rehired as a consultant to FEMA. A consultant? Yeah, that would make sense because he's so clearly an expert who knows everything there is to know about both emergency management and accountability.
By the way, if you do a Google News search for "Michael Brown FEMA" you get about a thousand headlines that read, "Michael Brown Blames Others..." or the like. Then, as you scroll down to the FoxNews headline: "Ex-FEMA Chief Fesses Up to Katrina Mistakes." Are these guys watching the same testimony as everyone else?
Dickheads galore, my faithful friends. Dickheads galore.

Okay, how's about a challenge? Come up with a "Fine, Upstanding, Respectable Republican" of the week.
Well, Chris Shays (R-CT) at least told Brownie that the deer in the headlights look he had on his face throughout the disaster demonstrated to him (Shays) that he (Brown) couldn't do the job.
No way could I do this every week, though. Maybe that should be a challenge to yourself.
Nah; I don't like challenges. Too much effort involved...
