You can't make this s*** up: Mike Brown has been re-hired by FEMA as a consultant.

All three networks ran the Cindy Sheehan arrest as one of their top three stories yesterday, at least on their website. Coverage ignored the fringe groups at the rally and focused on those who were immediately around Sheehan; protest organizer were very careful to present a set of everday-looking faces. Worry warts like Ed Kilgore and Matt Yglesias (and I) ended up not having much to worry about. In the end, the press did cover the protest, and in fact covered the part that America is most comfortable seeing.
