President Partially Corrects a ProblemBush Picks RobertsFEMA Dumps Brown As Katrina Relief Chief
Call a spade a spade: Pres. Bush appointing this guy as head of FEMA was NOT a positive move. Pulling him out of the Katrina situation into a role of "overall supervision" is effectively kicking him upstairs to get him out of the way.
