Hmm, Someone Qualified ...
With the timely resignation of disgraced FEMA head Mike "Brownie" Brown, R. David Paulison was announced as the interim head of the agency. I don't envy him the job. But unlike Brown, Paulison has significant disaster relief experience, including the management of hurricane recovery efforts. While he's now fallen into one of the toughest jobs in the bureaucracy, I think it's safe to say he's at least much better prepared to handle the job than his predecessor was.

Mr. Paulison, who was named Florida Fire Chief of the Year in 1993, is a past president of the International Association of Fire Chiefs, putting him in the ranks of top emergency professionals.
And that's after having cleaned up in FL following Andrew. That makes him a good choice from a "but can he do the job?" perspective.
It's just about criminal for there to be any other criteria though.
that's right, he was the duct tape/plastic sheeting guy...
