Well, I'm sure no one saw THIS coming!
NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana (CNN) -- Federal Emergency Management Agency Director Mike Brown, under fire over his qualifications and what critics call a bungled response to Hurricane Katrina, resigned Monday, senior administration sources told CNN.Brown was recalled Friday to Washington and replaced as the point main for Hurricane Katrina relief efforts.
Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff named Coast Guard Vice Adm. Thad Allen to head Katrina relief efforts.
A senior administration official said Friday that President Bush approved Chertoff's decision.
Brown's reassignment came amid questions raised in Time magazine about whether his resume was padded to overstate his experience in emergency management. A FEMA official quoted in the report said Brown believes the article is inaccurate.
At least he's resigning, rather than getting fired from the job, like most people would have been asking for anyway. I think people on all sides could agree that if fingers were to be pointed, the fattest finger would be pointed to FEMA and how ill-prepared it was for this emergency, which is its job to be ready for.
Bye-bye Brownie!

Posted by: janet on September 12, 2005 04:33 PMWell you didn't think "W" would take the fall did you? He's the one who has turned the jobs into politcal patronage plums. I read in the Chron this weekend that in the last 3 years the percentage of higher level FEMA jobs held by career employess has declined from 40% to 19%. You can't expect the President of the Arabian Horse Association to know how to manage emegency preparedness. But hey...he just played the game....donate a big pile of $$ to the Bush reelection campaign get a plum federal job. Or ambassadorship.
I say put the responsibilitly where it belongs...as President Harry Truman famously remarked and had on a sign at his desk, "The buck stops here."
