FEMA and the Department of Homeland Security

I had replied to a comment on this post by saying:

I think that the diversity we see from ResLife is part of the bureaucracy. They need to look like they're doing something. Think of FEMA and the Department of Homeland Security. All of that funding, but when Hurricane Katrina came...


Well, no sooner then I post that reply that I see this article from Stephen Barr, in which he writes:

For a second time, the Department of Homeland Security is near the bottom of the "Best Places" rankings, and the poor showing was discussed yesterday at a hearing held by the House Homeland Security management subcommittee. The "Best Places" data showed that the department's headquarters scored lower than even FEMA -- 215th of 222 subcomponents in the rankings.
