Former FEMA Administrator Michael Brown (you know, the guy that became a walking metaphor for the Bush administration’s slow response to Hurricane Katrina) is spending some time in New Orleans in the run-up to the five-year anniversary of Katrina.
Gutsy move? That’s the question The New York Times posesthis morning.
It turns out Brown has a radio show, which he moved from Denver to New Orleans this week (a decision one listener called “pretty gutsy”). And he’s promoting his upcoming book on the federal response called “Deadly Indifference.”
On his radio show, Brown said the Bush administration just didn’t listen to him:
Put yourself in my shoes. You’ve just come out of a meeting where you’ve just told your boss that nothing’s working, I can’t make stuff happen, state and local government aren’t doing what they need to do, the federal government isn’t doing what it needs to do, things are bad. And he comes out and tells me I’m doing a heck of a job?
