What was 'Brownie' actually expected to DO at FEMA?

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

Just dish out FEMA bucks as patronage/graft for Repub buddies and potential contributors? :shrug:

Was he like Fredo, supposed to take the bigwig Repub funeral home directors out to "see the sights" and "show 'em a good time"?

1. Funnel contracts to his ex FEMA boss Joe A.

and he did that.

[Inland]

2. That was part of the job prior to Katrina.

I think his biggest tasks now are to get out of the way and collect his paycheck every other friday.

3. Replace as many people in key positions all the way down

with people just like him, ie nail buffers.
