2. Not fired
But put in a small room with several of those New Orleaners who just should have evacuated when they were told to.

13. Crooks & Liars has a segment on his background, too:
Cronyism: Brown is a Fraud

Brown's resume is a sham: "Now, an investigation by TIME has found discrepancies in his online legal profile and official bio, including a description of Brown released by the White House at the time of his nomination in 2001 to the job as deputy chief of FEMA. (Brown became Director of FEMA, succeeding Allbaugh, in 2003.)...read on"

The problem with this type of cronyism is that many human lives have been lost at the cost of his appointment. Brown should be arrested on the spot for plagerizing his way to one of the most important positions in our government. Allbaugh can pass him shanks from the adjoining cell.

(Update): Kevin Drum has much more on Brown and the rest of his cronies."The story also notes a "brain drain" of experienced disaster professionals at FEMA's lower levels, "hastened in part by the appointment of leaders without backgrounds in emergency management." Wonderful....read on"

19. Scapegoat in other words?
How about we get the one who put him in charge, and the one who put that one in charge, right to the top...This admin might decide to sacrifice Brown, and hope that people will forget about the rest of them...we can't let that happen...
