"I see Mike Brown is 'to return to administering Fema nationally.' I'm sure that makes everyone feel more confident."

FEMA was downgraded to only one of several national agencies under the administration of Homeland Security. This was another move by Bush. In that way he could rob FEMA of funds and redirect those funds to his war on terrorism.

Mike Brown is definitely unqualified but, realistically, who could do a better job with a critically underfunded FEMA. Mike Brown is just a convenient scapegoat so that the public will not look too critically at the Dept. of Homeland Security.

The underfunding of necessary repair to the levees and the inablility to respond to Katrina is more than the responsibility of one man. It is a systemic failure due to the need for funds to advance an illegal war for personal profit.
