What can Brown do for you? Nothing, apparently

Michael Brown, currently the front-running candidate for Most Hated Man in America, quit today as head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

Color me shocked.

Never mind the fact that Brown had just been relieved of most of his official duties in the wake of (a) FEMA's monumental mishandling of the Hurricane Katrina aftermath, and (b) the recent revelation by Time Magazine that Brown's only previous experience in disaster oversight was in an intern-level position in Edmond, Oklahoma.

The week this guy was having, you'd have thought his first name was Charlie.

Hey, Mike: That swishing sound you just heard was the door not hitting you in the backside on the way out.
