“I did learn a lot from David. I learnt from his mistakes. We’re very different people; he used humour where I use discipline. And I learnt that nobody respects him. And in a war situation, if you want your platoon to go over the top with you to certain death, it’s no good saying to them ‘Please come with me lads, I’ll tell you a joke.’ It’s a direct order ‘Come with me.’ And they’ll go ‘Yes, he’s got good leadership skills, let’s all go with him to our certain death’.”

Daren Fonda and Rita Healy are clearly the best journalists working today. To find the perfect little bit on the FEMA bio and to then coax the perfect line out of Claudia Deakins? Outstanding. Outstanding like an Outstanding Political Science Professor or an Outstanding Political Science Senior.

Always with the starched white shirt!

Great, great stuff.

Turns out he was never "in charge" of the Katrina disaster response effort" either. Rather, he used his "charge card" to purchase a plane ticket to New Orleans which he was legitimately "in" until today in "response" to the "disaster." It's a simple oversight in a very confusing situation down there. Why must the liberal media blow this stuff out of proportion?
