Reassigned

Micheal Brown's going out for Mexican tonight.

Thank god.

But he's not fired.

Can't fire him.

That would be tatamount to admitting a mistake.

"Michael Brown has done everything he possibly could to coordinate the federal response to this unprecedented challenge," said his boss, the competent-only-by-comparison Michael Chertoff.

He also said: “Other challenges and threats remain around the world.”

Yeah. Someplace there's an Arabian Horse that's not being ridden properly.

Here's another snippet from the story: Asked ahead of the announcement if he was being made a scapegoat, Brown told The Associated Press after a long pause: "By the press, yes. By the president, no."

That's right. Blame the press for reporting that you're a fuckup. After all if they didn't report it, know one would know.

Do they actually think they're fooling anyone with this move? Do they know how bad it makes them look when they can't admit mistakes? Even my seven-year-old daughter admits mistakes more often than these guys.

Brownie, you did a heckuva job.

either:

someone's developed a random text generator that can spew out seven digits;

someone's cracked the word verification code;

or some flunky in Bangladore's getting paid 25 cents an hour to go through blogs and type in the verification code.

Sounds like a job even Michael Brown could handle.

That's giving Brownie way too much credit.
