WASHINGTON -- Rep. John Sweeney, R-N.Y., urged President Bush to appoint former New York City mayor Rudolph Giuliani or two former military officials to run the ground response in the Gulf Coast, saying local authorities are not up to the task.
Sweeney suggested Giuliani or retired generals Colin Powell and Tommy Franks could take charge of the much-criticized hurricane relief efforts.
"We owe it to the American people to have America's best leaders with experience on the ground running this," said Sweeney.
When then-FEMA director Joseph Allbaugh responded to Sept. 11, Sweeney said, "There was real leadership on the ground. Joe Allbaugh did a pretty good job by taking direction from Mayor Giuliani."
that must hurt....
