With his resume, why shouldn't he do well?

Former FEMA director Michael Brown, whose callousness and cluelessness left hundreds of people and animals dead, thousands of people homeless, thousands of people without jobs, and which wrecked the economy and ecology of New Orleans, southwestern Louisiana, and the Mississippi Gulf Coast, has set himself up as a disaster preparedness consultant.

Any why not? Brown says he can teach communities to avoid making the "mistakes" that cost him his job. "I'm doing a lot of good work with some great clients," Brown says. If that is the truth, we have to ask two questions: Who would be stupid enough to hire him? And who would be ammoral enough to hire him? This is America, so I have no doubt there are people to fill both categories. Still, it boggles the mind.
