Heckuva job:
The Federal Emergency Management Agency misspent millions of dollars it received from selling used travel trailers, government investigators have found.
Instead of buying more trailers -- as allowed under the law -- FEMA used more than $13 million toward fully loaded sport utility vehicles, travel expenses and purchase card accounts, according to a draft report by the Homeland Security Department's inspector general obtained by The Associated Press. The report is to be released Friday.
During its three-month review last summer, the inspector general found that FEMA used some of the proceeds from trailer sales for tree-removal services, agency decals and banners and global positioning systems.
I remember when wingnuttia was all atwitter about--gasp--disaster VICTIMS "misspending" emergency funds (as if wingnuts should decide what's an appropriate purchase). Funny how they don't squawk even a little bit when it's an agency headed by one of their own...
