Not to worry.  Mr. Brown resigned.

From
http://www.nytimes.com/2005/09/12/national/nationalspecial/12cnd-fema.html?hp&ex=1126584000&en=4500396bdbcddf70&ei=5094&partner=homepage



Mr. Bush, surveying storm damage in Gulfport, Miss.,
initially brushed aside reporters' questions about
Mr. Brown's resignation.

"I was spending time with people," he said, referring to
his tours of the devastated areas in New Orleans and
elsewhere in the Gulf Coast region. "It was unbelievable.
So, I can't comment on something that you may know
more about than I do."

It's fun to speculate how people are going to
react to that last quoted statement.
