Michael Brown, FEMA fashion god

While people were dying in New Orleans, Michael Brown was concerned with his image and wardrobe and creature comforts. We all knew this but now more emails have been made public. And we're still paying him a hefty salary. How can he live with himself, let alone defend himself and blame the press? He's got to be a sociopath.

Here's part of a CNN story:


---On August 29, the day of the storm, Brown exchanged e-mails about his attire with Taylor, Melancon said. She told him, "You look fabulous," and Brown replied, "I got it at Nordstroms. ... Are you proud of me?"

An hour later, Brown added: "If you'll look at my lovely FEMA attire, you'll really vomit. I am a fashion god," according to the congressman.---

Even after he had been informed people were dying, he kept emailing about his clothes, his dog, his image.

I can't even get Charlie Melancon's page to load. He's got lots of information. If anyone's interested, I'll get some links to more articles. Damning stuff.

Dara,
there's something called Karma. Mike Brown may be left w/just that outfit when it's all over. there's something inherently wrong with this guy.

a person responsible for emergency responses of humans can't be managed by Damien of the Omen.

tamra,

I hope there is Karma. There really is something wrong with him, but based on the emails, there's a lot wrong with a lot of people. Scratch a Bush crony, find a sociopath, I believe.

I am reading Brown's emails now. He is, as late as September 5th (so far), joking about his clothing and taking the time to send multiple emails about reaching people who can say nice things about his days as a horse contest judge. While people were dying. I am glad I am reading the PDFs of the emails. I am beyond outraged.

Dara,
I think he should be indicted, required to pay back ALL of his salary, and sued by every single person affected by Katrina

ORRRRRR tried for mass murder. even Sadaam wouldn't have been that insensitive.

it's like how many wake up calls do we need: it's not about Bush not caring about "black people" which people assumed were only involved in Katrina, it's about NO CONCERN FOR OUR CITIZENS because there's no profit in that. the profit is in putting money into other countries for bigger profits among an elite group.

you know as I'm reading this shit from Brown, it's infuriating. I just don't think Mike Brown's neighborhood would have been left hanging like that.

Dara,
I dread giving this to family members. they're not getting much of the news and info.

but man this guy should definitely be brought up on charges for fraud. he perpertrated himself as a capable FEMA manager.

maybe the guy is on crack, and couldn't comprehend all that was going on? what a son-of-a-bitch!
