Brownie's New Job - FEMA Contractor

Via The Left Coaster comes the news that, far from being fired, Brownie has been hired as a consultant by FEMA.

6:44 p.m.
(CBS) — CBS News correspondent Gloria Borger reports that Michael Brown, who recently resigned as the head of the FEMA, has been rehired by the agency as a consultant to evaluate its response following Hurricane Katrina.

9:05 p.m.
(CBS) — Later this evening, CBS News correspondent Gloria Borger spoke with a spokesman for FEMA, Russ Knocke, who confirmed that Brown remains on the FEMA payroll. He also said that technically Brown remains at FEMA as a "contractor" and he is "transitioning out of his job." The reason he will remain at FEMA about a month after his resignation, said the spokesman, is that the agency wants to get the "proper download of his experience."

Bush and his cronies simply don't care how obvious they are about their crookedness anymore, do they? The don't even care about their own supporters - the Right was just as vocal in calling for Brownie's head.

And he has been getting paid the whole time! In fact, as a contractor he probably gets paid more!

Words fail...
