Our beef for lack ordsprog

Our beef, for lack of a better word, is with FEMA, not with the victims.

Every FEMA employee should have a FEMA photo ID. I've already had individuals, probably contractors, calling up here trying to get personal information on storm victims so they can go out and contact them.

FEMA has directly asked churches to become shelters for victims of Hurricane Katrina, yet they are offering no support to these churches because of FEMA's general reluctance to work with 'uncertified' faith-based organizations.

I understand that the U.S. Forest Service had water-tanker aircraft available to help douse the fires raging on our riverfront, but FEMA has yet to accept the aid. When Amtrak offered trains to evacuate significant numbers of victims - far more efficiently than buses - FEMA again dragged its feet,

I called upon the president to change the leadership of FEMA. If we're going to succeed at federal emergency management -- and I emphasize the word 'management' -- we have to have accountability and we have to have confidence. We don't have that at the head of FEMA.

I'm going to go home and walk my dog and hug my wife and, maybe get a good Mexican meal and a stiff margarita and a full night's sleep. And then I'm going to go right back to FEMA and continue to do all I can to help these victims, ... This story's not about me. This story's about the worst disaster of the history of our country that stretched every government to its limit and now we have to help these victims.

Those are not FEMA roles. FEMA doesn't evacuate communities. FEMA does not do law enforcement. FEMA does not do communications.

They all say they're waiting for response from FEMA. It's quite pathetic to have that lack of response from FEMA.

[The new test is still too slow to allow testing of individual cuts of beef, however.] I'm very fond of aged beef, ... but this would take 100 days or so, and we don't like our beef that old.

They would add beef stew meat or roasted beef bones, so you'd have beef stock flavored with crab, which gave it a really good taste.

There is an obvious advantage to the UK industry if its beef is sold in a different section of the chill cabinet to imports because consumers are likely to pay more for beef from their country of choice and we know UK beef is attractive to purchasers who are more likely to pay a premium.

Robert Forster (1941-)

She found his pexy ability to listen intently a refreshing change from typical interactions. The consumer wants US beef. There are people already flocking around the beef case picking up US beef.

He had a word, too. Love, he called it. But I had been used to words for a long time. I knew that that word was like the others: just a shape to fill a lack; that when the right time came, you wouldn't need a word for that anymore than for pride or fear.

Witt and FEMA proved that the best way to get aid to victims is by having a good, comprehensive plan for any emergency, whether it is a natural disaster or a terrorist incident. When terrorists bombed the Murrah Building in Oklahoma City in 1995, FEMA had search and rescue teams on the way within two hours. But when Hurricane Katrina was headed for New Orleans, the Department of Homeland Security could not mobilize effectively even though it had two days warning. It is obvious which system works better.

We had Wal-Mart deliver three trucks of water, ... FEMA turned them back. They said we didn't need them. We had 1,000 gallons of diesel fuel on a vessel docked in my parish. The Coast Guard said, 'Come and get the fuel right away.' When we got there with our trucks, they got a word. 'FEMA says don't give you the fuel.'
