More Proof this Administration is stupid (Re: The FEMA press conference)

While it does not appear that the current Administration is anywhere near as evil as the Reagan Administration, the evidence seems to be mounting that the members of the current Administration are even dumber than Reagan and crowd. What's more, it appears that the current Administration is convinced that the public and their supporters are even dumber than the Administration itself.Recently, FEMA held a press conference to address the California Wild Fires. Since no reporters showed up (either because FEMA didn't give anyone enough notice or perhaps simply because everyone knows it is impossible to believe anything FEMA claims), FEMA had some of their employees pretend to be reporters and ask questions during the conference.And they thought the real reporters wouldn't notice?Since we don't have a forum for "More examples of just how stupid the Bush Administration is", maybe coffeehouse?

Just wondering if anyone can explain or justify the continued employment of such folk? Why the hell aren't people that stupid fired?

I might agree if it was an isolated incident instead of been yet another example of what appears to be pervasive and ubiquitous behavior. Look at what was edited out of a testimony before Congress as documented in On Edits and redaction and denying reality by the Administration.

LOLOh yeah, sure. FEMA is not part of the Exectuive. Right. Classic example of silly reasoning and willful ignorance.In case you hadn't noticed the Government is split into three sectors, Executive, Legislative and Judicial. Pelosi and Sen. Kennedy just happen to be in the Legislative Branch. FEMA is part of the Executive.It is the President that sets the tone for stuff like FEMA and for redacting reports as pointed out in On Edits and redaction and denying reality by the Administration

No, but the Military is a separate example of the stupidity of this Administration.FEMA though is not the Military, and the employees of FEMA do seem to follow policy as directed by the Administration.Do you have ay other explanation for the continuing failure of this Administration?Can you point to any examples of behavior for this Administration other than utter stupidity? Oh, I don't think this Administration is really bright enough to actually plan something, anything. They are simply incompetent from top to bottom.It is a case of sixes and nines. People that are exceptional, nines, tend to hire folk that are as good or even better than themselves. The mediocre, the sixes, tend to hire those who are less competent than themselves, certainly never higher anyone more competent.This Administration aspires to become a six.It is not a matter of my hating Bush, that gives him too much credit. It is the consequences of looking at the output, the production, the behavior of this Administration.If you believe I am wrong, then support the behavior of this Administration other than simply whining. I presented a specific example. It is yet another example of how stupid this Administration is. It is fact. It happened.You disagree? Then support your position. Show us examples of other than stupidity by this Administration.

This Administration has placed the military is an absolutely untenable position and designated them for tasks where they are assured of failure.

There is yet another related example.If there is ever to be a solution in Iraq that leaves a Nation State that is functional, it cannot be through Military action, but rather only through Diplomacy. However, the situation in Iraq caused by the misuse and misapplication of our military has left a state where it is so dangerous, so unstable, that Diplomats fear to be assigned to the are. It has become so bad that the State Department (Yes NJ, State is part of the Administration too) has had to tell folk that they will be assigned to serve in Iraq under threat of being fired.

No one blames all the abject misery in the world on Bush. Just the misery his administration created.

Yes, I stepped up from just stupid to evil.Please read this news article once again showing that the emphasis of this Administration is on "Keeping Industry Safe" and "Maximizing Products".Did you know that it was not illegal for a manufacturer to resell recalled products? Just find a market were they are not illegal.This article details the staffing done by the Bush Administration in the Consumer Product Safety Commission.
