Did you just say that the Mayor of New Orleans has the power to direct the peoples of the Federal Government? Let me read that again. Yep, you said it.

You read "the power to direct" when all I said was "directing"? That's creative. As director, may I wave my baton and have "the power to" make you read?

Let me give you a quick civics lesson: President (Bush) is responsible for directing the U.S. military (that's why he has the title of Commander-in-Chief) and he is responsible for directing the peoples of the executive branch (which includes FEMA).

I researched this, and the facts kept coming up on my side -- so I kept looking, and you're right.
Here are the ""facts".

Just because Bill O'Reilly or Rush said that the Mayor of New Orleans is commander-in-chief of the U.S. military doesn't make it so. Learn to think critically and stop being a parrot.

Critical readers will note that I
should not have a clue what newfant is responding to, and I don't. I suppose an appropriate response would be that I believe Ted Kennedy and John Kerry seem to like to masticate together.

If Rush or Bill had said that your mom was the Commander-in-Chief would you have come on this board and blamed your mom for the federal government's non-response in New Orleans?

In the hope of objectivity -- let's get this over with now. Mom's are out-of-bounds. But ... if my Mom were to blame, she'd have hell to pay from me (again).
