Brown out in DC, and Black out in LA
Punnish ironies abound, as Mike Brown, (former) head of FEMA, resigns… and Los Angeles electricity goes black. Related? Probably not, but it makes for an amusing headline.
Brown’s resignation was no surprise; he’s been weathering heavy fire as the scapegoat for mishandling of emergency efforts in the wake of Katrina, but what’s going on in LA is still a mystery. Yesterday, ABC aired a supposed tape by someone claiming to be an Al Qaida member, threatening in an impeccable American accent to hit LA… and Melbourne (of all places!)
Addendum: As of thirty minutes ago (17:44:24 EDT), Brown’s profile was de-linked from the FEMA “Senior Staff Bios”. Listed as “Acting Under Secretary” is R. David Paulison.
