So now we see the latest example of the conservative theory of governing. Since they think government can't do anything right, they create their own self-fulfilling prophecy by saddling it with incompetent leadership, slashing its budget to ribbons to give tax breaks to rich people and large corporations, and watching it wither away. The final step? Point to its uselessness and abolish it.
Along comes the Federal Emergency Management Agency. They give it Michael Brown, an incompetent boob who couldn't even run an Arabian horse organization properly. They cut its funding to the point where they can barely operate their offices, much less accomplish anything useful at the times when Americans most need their help.
So what happens now? They complain that it's a weak, ineffectual agency that needs to be abolished.
Nice.
How about fixing the problems you caused instead? Too much to hope for?
