The press should switch back to the Port Deal. This Katrina thing has only managed to help one person and that is the former FEMA chief Michael Brown. I am glad he has gotten his due, the guy did nothing wrong and was scapegoated. He handled previous disasters just fine including Sept 11th as Deputy director.

Also the suggestion that he had an "average past" was just an empty attack. He had proven himself over and over with his actions and I know from personal experience that just because someone didn't "supervise" employees doesn't mean you didn't "supervise" employees. I for one have "supervised" government employees while in a contractor role. I assigned them work and they worked in a supporting role to me. I may have not been able to fire them or take action against them but in all other ways I indeed supervised them but in the government lookglass world things are often one way on paper and another entirely in reality. Regardless I was happy to see a good man who was beaten down and then hung out to dry get a fair shake.
