Picture of the Day - 3
Watching DHS chief Chertoff, I can't seem to help thinking about the fiasco under his leadership during Katrina.
Chertoff was an appeals court judge who was drafted into the post after Bernie Kerik imploded. He has a strong law enforcement background, but no experience in management or disaster relief.
If the terrorists do strike, this is the top government official tasked with response. (pictured with Michael Brown)

Thank goodness we've had things easy, hurricane-wise, so far this year. This bunch couldn't help us get out of a mild brain fart, let alone another disaster.

Actually, I'd bet at this point they'd handle a hurricane OK. They now know the political risks and it is an election year.
Election year hurricanes get more money.
