FEMA’s Charade


Impressed with FEMA’s press conference?.
Especially after the fiasco that was Katrina.

April Fool!...


Surprise of surprises, the FEMA press conference turned out to be a charade.

There was no press conference.

The press was actually barred.

And the spokesperson answered pre-arranged questions from his own staff giving the illusion that this was the real thing.

But word leaked out. FEMA was simulating a press conference.

The impression is that FEMA was trying to fool us, the public.

Is that not only embarrassing, it is the height of stupidity.

If it were the Japanese equivalent, the spokesperson would have already fallen on his sword.

If we are indulging in programs that are meant to only fool the public, where do we go from here? Monopoly money. Phony promises to those without housing. Medals that have no significance at all.

FEMA is already a joke.

And that stupid display is strike two!...

Now, as if to poke fun at something everyone already pokes fun at, they exacerbate FEMA’s already flimsy grasp of reality by smoke and mirrors that wouldn’t qualify them for amateur shows….

We don’t need more smoke and mirrors.

They’ve already proved that that’s how they operate in the first place.

All show and no content!....

If by now, we haven’t learned that FEMA is no place for sinecures to manage.

They only come out looking like a bunch of inept clowns.

The trouble is that those inept clowns are responsible for saving lives.

And then it’s no longer a joke.


It’s time to dismantle FEMA and put something serious in its place.

They are an embarrassment to America presided over by a bunch of self-serving nit-wits!...

God save this country from what it calls government.
