Chip the prophet

The below was blogged by "Chip" on Septermber12 and was as accurate as if it was written after-the-fact. Kudos to Jami as a prophet:

WAPO is reporting that FEMA director Michael Brown is in fact, resigning. On the surface this looks like a good thing, because tons of people have been calling for him to go.

I'm sure he didn't quit because he wanted to - surely the Bush administration asked him to fall on his sword to save their plummeting approval ratings. So I figured this was probably going to happen about 2 days ago.

Two days ago I was talking to my sister, I told her that if Brown was fired or quit, it would give the Bush administration the ability to use him as a scapegoat for everything that went wrong on the federal level and not take any further post-katrina action.

So now that Brown is gone, expect Bush to dig his heels in the sand and say "I did what I needed to, what else do you want?".
