From the Salt Lake Tribune

"There are all of these guys with all of this training and we're
sending them out to hand out a phone number," an Oregon firefighter
said. "They [the hurricane victims] are screaming for help and this day
[of FEMA training] was a waste."
    Firefighters say they want to brave the heat, the
debris-littered roads, the poisonous cottonmouth snakes and fire ants
and travel into pockets of Louisiana where many people have yet to
receive emergency aid.
    But as specific orders began arriving to the firefighters in
Atlanta, a team of 50 Monday morning quickly was ushered onto a flight
headed for Louisiana. The crew's first assignment: to stand beside
President Bush as he tours devastated areas.

Either be the real deal or don't show up at all. All you do, you twisted sick silver spoon sucking draft dodger, is use up resources when people's lives hang in the balance. Good Lord....go back to Crawford already.
