Michael “Heck-of-a-job Brownie” Brown digs deeper today.

Apparently, in Brownie’s special world, the President should have, first & foremost, considered the political “mileage” he could have wrung out of delaying action on Hurricane Sandy, so governors would have to beg him to come to the rescue. In Brownie’s twisted calculus, thinking about the actual [bleeping] lives at stake and acting proactively was the wrong thing to do, because it wasn’t politically showy enough.

I am filled with unending gratitude that this weasel and his enablers are nowhere near the halls of power today:

“The President should have just-he could have just made a comment while he was in Florida that says, “you know my FEMA director is on top of this and we’re gonna do everything we can when the states ask us to come in and help.” Boom. …

   He would have been better served politically to let everybody else-Bloomberg, Christie, Cuomo, O’Donnell [sic] – all of them make whatever statements they were going to make. Call for their evacuations. And then he could have stepped up, very presidentially, and said “And by the way, I have instructed my FEMA director to give the states whatever they need as the storm approaches.” I think he would have gotten more mileage out of it. In other words, he peaked too soon.”

Yesterday’s statement below the jump, for those who missed it.

Bush’s FEMA Director During Katrina Criticizes Obama For Responding To Sandy Too Quickly

“One thing he’s gonna be asked is, why did he jump on [the hurricane] so quickly and go back to D.C. so quickly when in…Benghazi, he went to Las Vegas?” Brown says. “Why was this so quick?… At some point, somebody’s going to ask that question…. This is like the inverse of Benghazi.”

This from the man who was more responsible than almost anyone else for the prolonged torture of the survivors of Katrina in New Orleans.
