Have you guys heard about Brownie's e-mails? Holy crap, man. If this doesn't prove Bush just hires his friends, I don't know what does.

Brown is still on the federal payroll at his $148,000 annual salary. Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, saying Brown's expertise was needed as he investigated what went wrong, agreed to a 30-day extension when Brown resigned. Chertoff renewed that extension in mid-October.

Great work if you can get it.

Peace.

I sure as hell could use $148,000 a year...

I think we all forget that this guy was a champion horse judge. I think that $148,000 is well earned.

What a sad excuse for a human being. He could've at least tried to do his job.

I find it hilarious that his appointment was obviously a political favor of somekind to a department that wasn't supposed to be really important, and then a hurricane hits New Orleans.

So...is he going to get paid to tell the White House that it was his fault?

A few days later, Worthy advised Brown: "Please roll up the sleeves of your shirt, all shirts. Even the president rolled his sleeves to just below the elbow. In this [crisis] and on TV you just need to look more hard-working."

This really ****es me off.

God, he's not speaking figuratively is he?
