picking someone qualified for FEMA? What is Obama thinking?

Obama picks Florida's Fugate to head FEMA

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama on Wednesday tapped Florida emergency manager Craig Fugate to head the Federal Emergency Management Agency, turning to a Republican appointee who has steered the Southern state through numerous hurricanes since 2001.

In a statement issued by the White House, Obama said he plans to nominate Fugate who will help the administration "improve our preparedness, response and recovery efforts."

Of course, since Obama is continuing to reach out to the repugs, something is bound to go wrong with this!
