Re: Catfight Between Kyra Phillips and Nancy Pelosi

Here's a partial transcript:

House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi showed a very intersting side
of herself on live television while being interviewed by CNN. While
she was doing her typical finger-pointing about Hurrican Katrina
relief efforts, Pelosi turned on her interviewer, who dared to
challenge her accusations...
See a partial transcript in the extended entry:
KYRA PHILLIPS: Just another reality check. Congresswoman Pelosi, as
we continue to follow, of course this developing information coming
in. The hardest part. And I think it's far from over. We are going
to continue to hear about people that have been trapped. I mean, you
are talking about such a swath of a region here. It's just hard to
listen to that, and to have to talk about that. And no doubt, it
will be never ending. But I want to ask you, as you stand here and
continue to criticize the administration, and criticize the director
of FEMA, I do want to tell you the White House coming forward today.
Scott McClellan coming forward today, and basically disputing your
account of your meeting with the president. And I'm looking at it
here saying that, you said you urged the president to replace the
embattled FEMA director because of the poor emergency response to
Hurricane Katrina. Um, however, McClellan saying that this is, that
that's not what you discussed with the president. That you were
discussing other things with the president, and that things are
being twisted here.

REPRESENTATIVE NANCY PELOSI: That's absolutely not true. Mr.
McClellan wasn't there. So he couldn't possibly know. What happened
was, I said to the president, Mr. President, we can begin to help
these victims of Katrina become whole again. First thing you can do
is to replace Michael Brown as the head of FEMA. To which the
president said, why would I do that? And I said, because of what
happened last week. And the failure of FEMA to be the real link
between the federal government and the people in need in our
country. The social compact to which the president said, what didn't
go right last week? That's what happened in the meeting. I stand by
that. If the president thinks everything went right last week, and
he wants to keep Michael Brown there, then I think that's going to
be a cost to the American people and livelihood. But if he wants to
then say that it didn't go right last week, then he should replace
Michael Brown.

PHILLIPS: But if we go back. I mean, we can go back year after year
after year and we can talk about FEMA. And what went wrong within
FEMA. And should FEMA be under the Department of Homeland Security.
But if we want to be historical here, and we want to go back in
time, I mean, we can go back to the Times-Picayune and the
investigation that when reporters revealed that time after time,
moneys were asked for from all types of various politicians. And
politicians you worked side by side with. And laws that you yourself
vote on, and moneys that should have gone to Louisiana to take care
of the problems with regard to the flood control systems. And I
think it's unfair that FEMA is just singled out. There are so many
people responsible...what has happened in the state of Louisiana.

REP. PELOSI: That is true. And I'm sorry that you think it's unfair.
But I don't. I think it's unfair to the people who lost their family
members, their live, their livelihoods, their homes, their
opportunity. And FEMA has done a poor job. It had no chance.

PHILLIPS: What about all the warnings from the Army Corps of
Engineers? Years ago. Saying there's a problem with these levees and
with this city.

REP. PELOSI: Kyra --

PHILLIPS: It's Kyra.

REP. PELOSI: If you want to make a case for the White House, go on
their payroll.

PHILLIPS: I'm not making a case for the White House, believe me. By
all means.
