Brown resigns from FEMA . I'm not the first and I doubt I'll be the last to say it either, but expect the Bush administration to do 3 things. Try to push all the blame onto Brown and LA Democrats. Publicly give lip-service to the "high quality of service" given by Brown. And three, get him another high paying job out of the public eye as a reward for falling on his sword for Bush...

Head of FEMA gets "assistant" who is actually, whats the word, competent

Comment Allen made after his work during 9-11:

"I guess what I'm saying was I wasn't overcome by the magnitude of the event where it paralyzed or impacted my thinking," Allen said in the March 2002 interview. "I was treating it like I would a major catastrophe because we get involved in those over our career a lot. This was an order of magnitude that nobody could imagine. But nonetheless you get on task and you start working."

Its good to see that it only takes a week and a half of dead Americans floating around in the destroyed remenants of one of our biggest seaports for the people in "charge" to get around to doing what they SHOULD HAVE FUCKING DONE IN THE FIRST PLACE.
