Council of Governors - looks like an educational effort based on learnings from Katrina - Some governors can't find their ass with both hands and a flashlight. FEMA has some problems, and this provides for channels to be set up so the adults can work around FEMA bottle necks. It also says the Department of Defense and the state National Guards do not want FEMA in the middle "coordinating" anything. So this is a good thing, that moves FEMA to one side. FEMA is part of DHS under Janet Napolitano.
