This one is short, sweet, and to the point. We don’t need a history lesson here, but I’m going to give it anyways. Michael Brown, or, “Brownie”, as our current president likes to call him, was appointed to the Undersecretary of Emergency Preparedness and Response (FEMA Director) in 2003 by George W. Bush.

Now nevermind the fact that “Brownie” was involved in numerous scandals before he was appointed into the position. Also nevermind that his only prior work experience before taking the FEMA position was at an electric plant and a position on the International Arabian Horse Association. In Bush’s eyes, his good old pal “Brownie” was perfect for the job.

On August 29th, 2005 the first parts of Hurricane Katrina were starting to batter the coastline of Louisiana. The hurricane would eventually flood 80% of the city of New Orleans, sending the entire city into a crisis that they haven’t fully recovered from to this day. Over 1,800 Americans died in the storm and the aftermath. A few days later when the Federal Government finally did step in to give relief to the region, Bush actually had the audacity to congratulate Brownie for allowing so many innocent people to go days without relief.

If you think this Katrina quote from our president was bad, just wait and see #17.

Heck of a job Brownie, huh?
