White House condemns FEMA’s fake presser.





Don't you mean throw FEMA under the bus??


Thinkprogress:


Today, Al Kamen reported that the Federal Emergency Management Association held a Tuesday press conference filled with softball questions that were actually asked by FEMA employees posing as journalists. In today’s press briefing, White House spokeswoman Dana Perino condemned FEMA’s actions:
QUESTION: And from what we understand, the questions were posed not by reporters but by staffers. And that distinction was not made known. Is that appropriate?


PERINO: It is not. It is not a practice that we would employee here at the White House or that we — we certainly don’t condone it. We didn’t know about it beforehand. … It’s not something I would have condoned. … FEMA is responsible.

A few people should be fired for that dog and pony show.

They fire people at Wal-mart for going to lunch late; what FEMA did was a lot worse. The whole press conference was a lie.

They got caught, this time. Seriously you know this goes on all the time, not as blatently, but let's get real, it goes on.

I agree with you Mr. Kitty. Not only FEMA should be shown the door but the WH too. I think we are all tired of the dog and pony show in the WH.
