FEMA: Well-fed on high
SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER EDITORIAL BOARD

<snip> While thousands of hungry, thirsty and injured Americans wondered about surviving, Brown had worries about dining well in nearby Baton Rouge, La. E-mails presented at a Senate committee hearing show his press secretary admonished other staffers: "Also it is very important for Mr. Brown to eat dinner. ... Restaurants are getting busy. ... We now have traffic to encounter ... followed by wait service from the staff, eating, etc." No cigar? <snip>

4. This doesn't surprise me at all. Another fat cat bureaucrat who
doesn't give a shit about anyone else but himself...even when it is his fucking job to help people!!

This dickhead should be in jail.

(I have been making an effort to stop cursing on DU, but this story really burns me up.)
