Michael Brown: The Fall-out Guy?
I had an interesting experience this week. A reader e-mailed me and asked me for an opinion about Fema Director Michael Brown who was in charge during Katrina. He provided me with the following links and wanted to know if I thought Brown was honest or not.
Like all people, I will confess to my share of judgements and when it came to Brown, my judgement wasn’t good. Because this adminstration has frustrated me so much, I just turn away these days. I don’t watch, listen or read anymore because it is the same old story and I am worn thin. I found the name of the site where the links were posted, interesting too.
However, I was shocked after watching the first clip of Brown. I was amazed. When I watched Brown, I trusted what he was saying to be true. His anger was genuine, his emotions were true. I watched the second clip and my opinion didn’t change.
All of the sudden, I was like wow. I wonder if Michael Brown is the fall out guy for this administration’s handling of Katrina. I can’t help but wonder…
Don’t get me wrong, I think Michael Brown knows more than he is saying…but nonetheless it appears he is being truthful. It appears that he did what he is saying he did — and those above him who were to carry orders out — had other orders from other people to “not do them”.
Very interesting. Very interesting.
