>>> A more complete list of his pre-FEMA accomlishments is given in the press release for his nomination to be Deputy Director of FEMA at http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2001/12/20011203-6.html His resume has "matured" since then. <<<

His resume "matured" because he had many assignments within FEMA prior to being promoted to its top position. Is that right?

What is about his resume do you not like? What past failures as head of FEMA, or in previous positions with FEMA, are you aware of? (be specific) And what are his failures in the Katrina response? (be specific)

>>He had no prior experience in disaster management.

Did any past FEMA heads have previous disaster management prior to their first job at FEMA? Just curious.

Did any past FEMA heads have previous disaster management prior to their first job at FEMA? Just curious.

From FEMA's own website:
James Lee Witt was appointed by President Clinton and confirmed by the U.S. Senate as Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency in April 1993. He was the first agency head who came to the position with experience in emergency management, having previously served as the Director of the Arkansas Office of Emergency Services for four years.

Why do you think Brown's official FEMA bio skips over his entire decade working for the horse people? Just curious.

You say Mr.Brown had no prior experience in "disaster management"? He's married with children isn't he?
C-Span announced today, that Joe Allbaugh (former Fema director), was Never Mr. Brown's roommate at college. They did happen to attend the same college.
