"More about Falkenrath:  "Falkenrath is a long-standing member --
albeit a junior one -- of the Bush inner circle. He worked on the
administration's transition to power in 2000 and then in various positions
dealing with weapons-proliferation issues and homeland security. According
to an online biography, he was 'one of the architects of the Department of
Homeland Security and the principal author of the National Strategy for
Homeland Security.' "

The fact that he was an architect of DHS  pretty much says it all.
But, there's even more!
He has no background in law enforcement - unusual for a Deputy Police
Commissioner.
This of course brings to mind a former FEMA director who had no background
in emergency management.
In a 2005 Frontline interview, Dr. Falkenrath said of Mr. Brown:

"Lots of people can excel in jobs for which they don't have any particular
experience."
