Yes, but did he spend that year in college?

Barack Obama does not care about horse people.

Has he paid his taxes?

Doin' a heckuva job, Fyoogie.

Nice cheap shot, Subby, but if you read TFA, this guy has been head of Florida's emergency services department since 2001. And he was appointed and re-appointed by Republican governors, so I don't see how he's a "crony".

The real disaster here is this stupid headline.

Oh, wait, I just re-read it and I realized that's the joke.

I'm going to blame the fact that I have a horrific cold and my head is just absolutely packed with mucus right now for this. Well played, subby.

That's the joke. I don't think it's a very good joke, but that is, in fact, the joke.

I cannot believe that the Messiah would put someone in charge of FEMA who has actual emergency management experience! WTF is wrong with this guy, and why won't he debate Rush Limbaugh?

jake_lex: Oh, wait, I just re-read it and I realized that's the joke.

Now I'm the joke.

Pretty sure the headline is tongue in cheek and is a cheap shot at Bush/Brownie, not Fugate/Obama.

Obdicut: Now I'm the joke.

Me too.

I would have been leery of choosing Fugate. His name is custom made for a scandal.

Sybarite: I would have been leery of choosing Fugate. His name is custom made for a scandal.

Or a high-end Italian sports car.

Fugate-gate. Or perhaps Fu(gate)²

Three Crooked Squirrels: Me too.

I knew it - I'm surrounded by jokes.

I appreciate the article's helpful inclusion showing the worst ongoing disaster area in the country:

Having lived through the 2005 hurricane season, I'm totally comfortable with this appointment.

FTFY

Change we can bereave in.

Fugate sounds good to me.

Obdicut: Now I'm the joke.

Dude, you were set up!

The guy is a Republican and therefore evil. Bad choice, Obama.

I can't believe the socialist appointed a Republican who lives in a hurricane state and has emergency management experience. I'm sick of this reaching across the aisle with competent bipartisan appointees. I want less change.

Spartacus is the joke!

This is not a Fugate t-shirt

People always rip on Michael Brown, but I don't recall any news stories about Arabian horses dying in Hurricane Katrina.

jake_lex: Oh, wait, I just re-read it and I realized that's the joke.

I'll let you slide this time. THIS time.

This is how the modmins justify assigning a "commie" rating to an anti-Obama headline. "It's a joke, stupid liberals."

/stay classy, modmins

Drag the nation, kicking and screaming, back to to functioning governance.

JohnBigBootay: I can't believe the socialist appointed a Republican who lives in a hurricane state and has emergency management experience

That's the brilliance of the plan. Obama knows FEMA still sucks so when the next disaster strikes and the response isn't what anyone wanted they can say "ha, it was the republikkkans fault".

If he manages to make it work, then obama is the good guy who appointed him.

He should appoint republicans to all posts.

AdolfOliverPanties: People always rip on Michael Brown, but I don't recall any news stories about Arabian horses dying in Hurricane Katrina.

I laughed at that one. And then I farted. I'm not sure if there is a correlation.

Look at da fuggin pendulum. First the Bush apologists now the Obama apologists.

What really tickles me, is all the stuff liberals bashed Bush about for over 8 years, continues to happen with Obama yet they defend him!

Democrats, telling you how to live and think since 1992.

Since that tragic misreading of the headline, we're all Jokes now.

Obdicut: jake_lex: Oh, wait, I just re-read it and I realized that's the joke.

Now I'm the joke.

Yeah. At least he has medication to blame it on...

Someone post the Rainer Wolfcastle "that's the joke" pic

Mentat: I cannot believe that the Messiah would put someone in charge of FEMA who has actual emergency management experience! WTF is wrong with this guy, and why won't he debate Rush Limbaugh?

If there's going to be a debate of entertainers, I want Limbaugh to prove he's ready for a title fight first.



I say: if Rush is too afraid to debate with Howard Stern on Howard's little show first, he's not ready for the big leagues.

2/10 or 9/10. It all depends on how you look at it.

I've got clowns on the left.

/stuck in the middle again

BTW, can someone explain to me why the democrats have to "attack" people to draw attention away from themselves? I mean for christ sakes, Rush is an entertainer. They control nearly every aspect of government and they still blame republicans for the continuation of failure. It just goes to show you how unqualified this adminitration is.

So, any Florida farkers have an opinion on this guy?

See previous post on attacking people when they can't refute the truth.

Bah, Rahm Emanuel held out a nugget and Rush and Steele screamed "shiny!" before plunging off a cliff after it.

This kind a bait is always floating around -- meanwhile, Republican strategists lament the fact no one could muster enough hate for the little old lady from California named Pelosi.

Obama: "Fugate. I'm picking this guy."

For christ sakes is right. But irregardless, you have to admit that for all intensive purposes the Democrat stragery is disorientating.

Pagoon: See previous post on attacking people when they can't refute the truth.

ok, let me rephrase that.


To all who thought they were the joke, do not worry. It appears Pagoon is the joke...and it's not a particularly GOOD joke.

I never got that. Pelosi is on par with GW with charisma, always spewing stuff from her mouth that is either a blantent lie or just radical left talk. She's definately Bush of the democrats. Only problem is, Bush is no longer there and she's still a lunatic.
