FEMA impersonates Journalists

FEMA has been caught sending its own staffers to impersonate members of the media to lob softball questions during press conferences. Lest we forgit, the Bush administration has been caught doing something like this before when it was discovered that a member of the Whitehouse press corps was actually working for a "news source" that was funded by a wing of the Republican party. That and their press secretary for the last year or so has been former Fox News man Tony Snow.

This brings up two of the major problems I have with the current situation. I cant blame the administration because we (by which I mean YOU) are letting them get away with blatant wrongdoing. They keep using the same tricks over and over and never face any consequences because they refuse to cooperate with anyone who would impose any consequences on their malfeasence. The part that makes me spit with rage is that, that very refusal is the end of any discussion of punishment or wrongdoing. Noone holds their feet to the fire and wnenever they try or the suggestion comes up the Democrats fold and slink away with their tails between their legs.

The horribly sad thing is that the Democrats seem to be week because they are leaderless, which suggest to me that they dont actually have anything to offer once you get past whatever charismatic mask they slap on the front of the monster.

I hate them because they are such failures against such a guileless foe.
