After reading this post Phrase matching on Democratic Veteran I got to thinking, how can we reframe the debate in the corporate media?
I want the TV talking heads to stop regurgitating the Bushco spin line that to criticize the federal response is to engage in a "blame game".
How about "What's the game plan?"
As in, do we have the right players on the field?
Are our tactics correct?
Is this a winning strategy?
If Michael Brown and Michael Chertoff were athletes they'd be on a one-way train to Palookaville.
Of course, our GM is the worst of all. I don't even know who to compare Bush to. Ferdinand Marcos (they've both got shoe-shopping wives, Imelda and Condoleeza)? Captain Queeg rolling around his ball bearings and muttering "problem solvers, solving problems..."?
Anyone got any ideas on reframing the debate? Leave a comment.

OK, I'll leave my own comment.
How about, FEMA never had a game plan and the political appointees are bush leaguers?
How about "we never checked our oil levels...its purely geographical. Our OIL is located in
Alaska
California
Oklahoma and
Texas
Our DIPSTICKS are in
Washington DC
Now that's what I'm talking about!
Thanks Big Daddy.
