He looks like he should have a cup in his hand looking for a few coins. He certainly has acted like a person with ZERO ability at anything. I remember when Katrina was at its peak winds this guy comes to the mike beaming and smiling mispronouncing it KatERina, and hiaving a great time. Where in the hell does Georgey come up with these guys? Chertoff has always looked to me like some homeless guy Georgey picked up off the street and made DHS Chief.
