Mike Brown’s performance before Congress yesterday has inspired me to quote this bit of speculative gossip from Atrios:
Brown told congressional investigators Monday that he is being paid as a consultant to help FEMA assess what went wrong in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, according to a senior official familiar with the meeting.

And now I will leave you to guess where this bit of gossip came from, because I promised not to tell. But one of the above-mentioned folks called me this afternoon to say that according to sources within the Enquirer itself, the source for Bush’s drinking story is—an incredibly pissed-off, recently scapegoated head of a federal agency who thinks that BushCo. done him wrong.
