Ohh...the teabaggers aren't going to like
this...Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley on Sunday praised the federal disaster response to Hurricane Irene, saying the Federal Emergency Management Agency under Administrator Craig Fugate has been exemplary.
"This is a much better FEMA than the olden days," the Maryland Democrat said on NBC's "Meet the Press." "They have been with us since Day One."
"Craig Fugate and the people at FEMA, [Homeland Security] Secretary Napolitano and President Obama -- they have been excellent," O'Malley went on.
In 2005, FEMA was widely panned for an inadequate response to the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina.
But O'Malley's a Democrat so I guess he's a liar.
What about Chris Christie?
Here's what he tweeted today...
