Why start with FEMA? The problem doesn't seem to stem from them, but Bush. He didn't sign a bill to send aid until 3 days after landfall, probably because of partisan politics (governor of Louisiana was Democrat).

That's always going to be an issue with any federal program. What we should have IMO is a much smaller federal military, larger National Guard, and legal obligations for each state to aid the others with their national guard when one declares an emergency.

So yes, move it elsewhere, but not under the President's purview.
