FEMA's Great Hawaii Adventure. Someone jog my memory.

[Democrat 4 Ever]

Isn't there a video of FEMA officials partying big time in Hawaii when they were suppose to be meeting to work on security, etc. I remember a hidden camera by a news outlet that show the boondoggle and waste of monies for a vacation for the higher ups in FEMA. And isn't there a vacation home in Hawaii that is maintain for the personal use of government officials. This came out before last year's election if senility hasn't seized my brain.

This has been nagging at me for several days. I can't remember enough of the details to do an effective search. Would love to see the news footage again - especially since we aren't quite sure what Brown and Chertoff were doing in prepping this country for disasters. Does this ring a bell to anyone?

1. I mentioned that a few weeks ago. Homeland Security and FEMA got caught

on tape running seminars for entrepeneurs to make money off of Homeland Security "opportunities" and Tom Ridge was front and center in the video.

It all sounded like a bad infomercial scam. Can't recall which network ran the original report, but no broadcast news media reported on it afterwards as an ongoing story.

2. ABC's "20/20" did that story. Here's a link:
