Gentlefolk,

Here’s an interesting development in the FEMA allocations process: both James Witt, Bill Clinton's FEMA director (and now an adviser to Louisiana's governor), and Joe Allbaugh, Mr Bush's first FEMA director, run consulting companies that help firms navigate the government red tape (James Lee Witt Associates & Allbaugh Co.). We’re talking serious cash here; Congress has already appropriated more than $60 billion to cover the costs of the disaster.
