FEMA Head Bears the Brunt of Katrina Anger

[Moloch]

He's been called an idiot, an incompetent and worse. The vilification of federal disaster chief Michael Brown, emerging as chief scapegoat for whatever went wrong in the government's response to Hurricane Katrina, has ratcheted into the stratosphere. Democratic members of Congress are taking numbers to call for his head.

"I would never have appointed such a person," said New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

"Let's bring in someone who is a professional," urged Sen. Barbara Mikulski, D-Md.

A more visceral indictment came from closer to the calamity. Aaron Broussard, president of Jefferson Parish near New Orleans, said the bureaucracy "has murdered people in the greater New Orleans area."

3. How many official posts do you suppose have been filed

by the "politically connected" as opposed to the "qualified and able to perform the job"?

There should be a psychological test given to every person in an area that means life and/or death to other human beings. Number one criteria: ability to think on their feet and take logical action.
