FEMA -- they didn't mean it

Remember when FEMA gave the four biggest no-bid cleanup contracts to GOP-linked companies? And then they felt bad and they promised to reopen all four of those contracts so they'd be competitively bid?

Apparently, they didn't mean it.

The four major firms said this week they had not been notified of the rebidding...

And remember when Bush talked about minority-owned businesses being stakeholders in his new vision of a rebuilt Gulf Coast? And then it emerged that more than freaking 98% of the Katrina contracts went to white-owned companies? And then they felt bad and they said they'd re-bid the contracts so more would go to minority-owned firms?

Apparently, they didn't mean it.

If it weren't for the Saturday paper, where would we hide this malarkey?
