Mike Brown: That Negative Audit Is, Well, Negative! And Just Plain Wrong!

Read it and weep. Or possibly laugh cynically:

(Washington-AP) Sept. 28, 2005 - An internal FEMA audit released Wednesday shows former director Michael Brown was warned weeks before Hurricane Katrina hit that his agency's backlogged computer systems could delay supplies and put personnel at risk during an emergency.

The review of the agency's information-sharing system shows it was overwhelmed during the 2004 hurricane season which saw four hurricanes rip across Florida.

The audit was released a day after Brown vehemently defended FEMA for the government's slow response to Katrina. The report concluded FEMA's poor coordination of deployment operations "hindered the delivery of essential disaster response and recovery services."

In a response last month, Brown and a deputy rejected the audit, calling it unacceptable, erroneous and negative.

Mike? You're FIRED.

Asshat.

Serenity!

I am such a geek. Such a huge geek.

I am actually thinking about putting some some of these cool posters from this cool guerilla marketing web site. Yeah! They're, you know, cool!

Plus: have you seen the River Tam sessions? Funky creative viral marketing. I dig Firefly. Joss Whedon is nifty.

Such. A. Geek.
