No confidence in Brown

Good afternoon to all,

Well, it seems that "Brownie" wasn't doing a heck of a job afterall, to paraphrase the words uttered by our president when he first set foot upon the devastated scene of Katrina's aftermath, FEMA chief Mike Brown has been removed from the Hurricane Katrina relief effort, sidelined from what has been FEMA's biggest challenge to date. Controvery has surrounded the political appointee in a way that seems to "have legs". What that means is that he is not only battling questions regarding the slow FEMA response immediately after the storm, but is also caught up in questions about what might be incorrect information found on his actual resume of qualifications for his job, and his official bio found on the FEMA website. Relief and recovery efforts will now be in the hands of Coast Guard Vice Admiral Thad Allen. My hope is that the change will finally allow help to get to those in need, afterall it is day 11 since the terrible event occurred.
