I'll be happy to relate if you don't know that joke
Is it a hot tin roof?
Mal: Cut it out. Job's not done until we're back on Serenity. Zoe: Sorry, sir. Didn't mean to enjoy the moment.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If I only had a brain...
His reassignment is the old "cat on the roof"* to his eventual replacement.
He's going to quietly resign. They're already floating the story that he was planning to resign at the end of hurricane season long before Katrina.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Wolfram, I love that joke. Feel free to retell!

Yeah, right.
What, was he planning on going back to his first love - mismanaging horsie stuff?

In FEMA revelation, Michael Brown fudged his resume
Yep, this is the administration that was going to bring dignity back to the White House.
I can still take cupcakes into Emmett's class and Northern California usually leads the nation in food dictatorship
Funny you should mention that, since I just read that Diane Feinstein wants NyQuil and Sudafed to become controlled substances (only purchasable in person; must show photo ID; must sign a register).
At a time of national crisis, and the President already having signed $61 BILLION in disaster relief, we as a nation can't afford to pay $9 an hour to laborers?
Given that we are paying mercenaries a whole lot more than that to patrol New Orleans....argh! I may be overly suspicious, but I think the administration sees this as a way to get the minimum wage lowered. If they suspend it here and now, it's possible that a precedent will be set, and minimum wage will either stay suspended, stay at the new lower levels, or be suspended whenever the Executive feels like it.

All these scum fuckers who want to shrink the federal government,
Yet oddly so many seem to support Bush, who doesn't have much a track record of shrinking the government.

I'm more likely to keep it in.
Yeah, I'm not the most internal guy. Sometimes to my own detriment.

This is the really mindbending part.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Sometimes to my own detriment.
And my style sometimes works to my detriment. No quarrels here.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Somebody said online "If there are no atheists in foxholes, there are also no libertarians when the levee breaks."
Sadly, this is proving false.
Nah. They just say neither party was able to build an effective levee. The wonderful thing about libertarians is that current events almost never sway their commitment to their ideology.
