4. Thanks--I particularly like the last 4 paragraphs
A native of Guymon, Okla., Brown once served on the Edmund, Okla., city council. He also oversaw that city's emergency services divisions from 1975-78. But he lost campaigns for mayor of Enid, Okla., and a U.S. House seat.

"He's done a hell of a job, because I'm not aware of any Arabian horses being killed in this storm," said Kate Hale, former Miami-Dade emergency management chief. "The world that this man operated in and the focus of this work does not in any way translate to this. He does not have the experience."

Last year, Brown also faced heat when it was discovered FEMA paid out $31 million in aid in Miami-Dade County after Hurricane Frances, though the storm hit 100 miles to the north and the county never felt sustained winds of hurricane strength.

President Bush on Friday was quick to defend Brown, saying he thought Brown was "doing a heck of a job."
