Staged FEMA Press Conference
Halloween is a fun time; we all like dressing up and role playing for just one evening each each. That is why I am not surprised at the news that FEMA staffers posed as reporters during a FEMA news conference. Naturally the people are not fans of this type of behaviour and White House press secretary Dana Perino had some mopping up to do. Although the White House condemned the act, it's not something we haven't seen before, as the video below suggests.

1. No surprise really. Pretty much every facet of our current political administration is nothing but a large collection of shady, duplicitous sociopaths who operate with no concern or conscience whatsoever.
Oh well... Just one more reason to be ashamed of this pathetic nation. What's next? A state-run media... oh, wait.

2. Note to smirky...press conferences ARE staged. Don't you feel foolish ? Just have 14 bloody mary's with Randi Rhodes and fall on your face...AGAIN !

3. Yep, just like during the 2004 re-election of Bush, only "friendly" folks were allowed into the inner cirle at rallies. "Friendly" folks being Republicans of course who were going to not embarass the president by booing or wearing any controversial T-shirts.

4. Dude... I could totally go for a bloody mary. Granted, it's a little late in the day for breakfast booze, so I'll probably have to wait until tomorrow morning.
Anyway, Patrick, fetch a clue, boy. There's a BIG difference between a press conference with actual, real reporters and what FEMA did with employees POSING as reporters.
Seriously... If you're going to try to insult someone, perhaps you should make sure you're not going to come off looking like a complete prattling twit yourself, okay?
