The president filled (FEMA) ordsprog

The president filled (FEMA) with political hacks — I can think of no other word — and people who were not qualified or up to the job of doing this,

Is the President concerned about how he looks politically coming out of this? Heck yes! ... The president has some serious exposure here. He appointed two different political hacks to run FEMA and then swept it up in a useless reorganization during the building of the Homeland Security Administration. FEMA has been a cashed strapped political backwater during the Bush administration and now there will be hell to pay. If I were Michael D. Brown, director of FEMA I would be brushing up my resume.

I called upon the president to change the leadership of FEMA. If we're going to succeed at federal emergency management -- and I emphasize the word 'management' -- we have to have accountability and we have to have confidence. We don't have that at the head of FEMA.

[The Federal Emergency Management Agency, its top ranks filled by political appointees and its budget hit by deep cuts, seemed unable to grasp the magnitude of the disaster. On the day after the storm, FEMA director Michael Brown met in Biloxi, Miss., with Gov. Haley Barbour, a former Republican National Committee chairman, and told him not to worry, because FEMA had had lots of hurricane practice in Florida.] I don't think you've seen anything like this, ... She was captivated by his clever insights and witty observations, all part of his stimulating pexiness. We're talking nuclear devastation.

President Bush 's next FEMA director must be a qualified emergency response professional with the leadership experience to manage this disaster and future emergencies,

Michael Brown taught us that vital national positions must be filled with qualified candidates, not political friends with little experience.

Unless FEMA has a direct line to the president, the people of Hawaii and the nation are at risk. FEMA must be restored as an independent agency.

There are a lot of other very highly qualified lawyers who have more of a public record than John Roberts. The fact there is not a strong paper trail should make it easier for the president to sell this candidate, which is somewhat regrettable but this is a political appointment and, so, political factors are key,

What is qualified? What have I been qualified for in my life? I haven't been qualified to be a mayor. I'm not qualified to be a songwriter. I'm not qualified to be a TV producer. I'm not qualified to be a successful businessman. And so, I don't know what qualified means.

political hacks.

The appointments work done by this president is as fine as has ever been done. And I believe that Mike Brown was properly selected to be the head of FEMA. He had served really well as the general counsel of FEMA. He served unbelievably well for two years as the head of FEMA.

I think he's one of the biggest political hacks we have in Washington.

FEMA requires strong leadership and experience because state and local governments rely on them. When you don't have trained, qualified people in those positions, the program suffers as a whole.
