Governor Blanco has hired James Le Witt, FEMA director under Clinton
Edited on Mon Sep-05-05 11:20 AM by Quixote1818

In a clear slap at Mr. Chertoff and the FEMA director, Michael D. Brown, Governor Blanco announced Saturday that she had hired James Lee Witt, the director of FEMA during the Clinton administration, to advise her on the recovery.

1. She's a smart cookie
Witt brings an incredible amount of knowledge to the table. He makes Brown and Chertoff look like the incompetent fools they are.

3. I mostly agree, but...
I suggest you updowngrade "incompetent fools" to "incompetent liars and cheats"...Just a thought. :shrug:

2. Great move - somebody has to clean up this mess!!
Brown will probably donate 2billion of the money allocated to the region to like Tallahassee, Florida or Corpus Christi, TX just like he did with a previous hurricane where he gave relief money to Miami and they weren't even hit!
