isn't this administration SOP, fill the audience with friendlies and confederates? i think once we get the current batch of nincompoops out of power, FEMA will at least return to its original marginal-but-acceptable level of performance. but yeah, until the neocons get the fuck outta dodge FEMA is, like just about every other arm of government the conjobs care about enough to ruin, a waste of space and an excuse to reward political allies by appointing them to jobs they aren't qualified for.
