Anybody Wanna Be FEMA Director?

Seven people who were contacted by the Bush administration about taking the top job at FEMA took themselves out of the running for the post, the New York Times reported Sunday. So now Bush apparently will nominate R. David Paulison, who has held the job on an acting basis since Mike Brown left town, to take it permanently. It's a little difficult to fill a top executive slot in an agency when you've made it clear that if things go wrong, whoever holds that job will take the fall.
