When Life Imitates The Onion
CBS News correspondent Gloria Borger reports that Michael Brown, who recently resigned as the head of the FEMA, has been rehired by the agency as a consultant to evaluate it's response following Hurricane Katrina.
I don't think anything else need be said. Is it Dilbert? Is it The Daily Show? Is it The Onion? I just can't decide.
EDIT: More articles have been popping up. Apparently he's on board, with full pay, until sometime in October. Until then, he'll be helping Congress evaluate the Katrina failures. Apparently, he's said he "should have asked the military for help sooner." Seems to me that a more serious problem was old-fashioned ignorance of the magnitude of the disaster while it was happening.
Is 'If only the military had been there sooner' going to be the new talking point to hammer from every angle? We'll see.
