Oh, Those Interns . . .
Time Magazine is reporting that Michael Brown padded his resume.
Brown has a biographical section on the FEMA Web site (which I'm sure has been taken down by now, but I haven't chekced) said he served "as an assistant city manager with emergency services oversight." in Edmond, Okla. A spokeswoman for the city, however, tells Time that Brown's position was "more like an intern."
Know what the only truth on his resume that makes him qualified for the FEMA job?
Fundraiser for George W. Bush.
And I'm not even kidding.
Like I said: Business as usual.
Update: Time also reported that, while Brown's profile on FindLaw.com lists him as an "outstanding Political Science Professor" at Central State University, the school contends that he was merely a student. He also claimed to be director of the Oklahoma Christian Home, but no one at the home has ever heard of Brown. You can't make this stuff up!
Update: Michael Brown has been relieved of any and all duties relating to the Hurricane Katrina disaster relief efforts. Hurl all future insults toward Coast Guard Vice Adm. Thad W. Allen.

Think I could pass myself off as curator of the Hirschhorn? I went there a couple of times.
What's remarkable about this administration is that their brand of conservatism (little federal involvement, cuts in social programs, etc) only works in a true meritocracy. If hard work and talent don't get you ahead, then safety nets are necessary. You'd think they'd put two & two together.
