(14,491 posts)18. Standardized Republican Emergency Response Plan:
1. First, look at how Repug-friendly corporations can profit from the disaster.
2. Next, look for any and all ways of minimizing government involvement.
3. List the absolute minimum items that must be done and how to delay and minimize costs.
4. Energize the Repug/Evangelical Tots and Pears Generator and flood them into all media outlets.
5. Clothe yourself in tough-guy jackets and hats for publicly showing off your ass.
6. Energize your Repug spin machinery, then go on TeeVee and blame Democrats for the disaster.
7. Go on Faux TeeVee and blame Democrats for poor and slow government response, then brag about what a great job you've done.
Straight from a well-used play book. That's Repug emergency leadership in a nutshell.......
