When you use the position as head of an agency as a plum for political payback for supporters and donors, you're going to end up with guys who used to run horse shows managing disaster agencies instead of experienced professionals in the field running things. No mention of 11 years in the horse thing in his FEMA bio, and I expect he didn't do that all of the time, though the rest of his experience doesn't look much better. But looking at the investigative reports out there like in the Boston Herald, this guys' days are numbered.

Too bad only he will take the fall, instead of the guy who put him there to begin with.
