Probably.

Pace,

If after reading that article you think Brown was the best qualified candidate for the head of FEMA, then it is readily apparent that our education system is in crisis!

Yes, it is in serious trouble if you can wend your way through the system and not assimilate the concept of "sarcasm".

you gotta admit...........this is one of those jobs that nobody wants. And you can see why...........right now.........

Given the nature of DC and the extreme partisanship on both sides, I would say that most of the best qualified people would not want any politically appointed job.
