I heard someone say he was a former roommate of BUsh’s. Don’t know if that’s true or not.
Ian, I stand corrected. Brown was named to the job by his college roommate, a former Bush campaign director. From http://www.ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=30210
“What is clear is that Brown was named FEMA’s deputy director by his college roommate, then-FEMA director Joseph Allbaugh, who secured Brown’s elevation to the top spot after Allbaugh, a Bush campaign director in 2000, left government as U.S. troops invaded Iraq to create his own consulting firm for clients in the overseas disaster-relief business, including Halliburton Co., which, of course, was headed by Vice Pres. Dick Cheney in the 1990s and has received many billions of dollars in Iraq-related contracts.”
