One of these days I'd like to pick up the paper and read an article about how there was a crisis averted due to superior long-range planning by a government agency.

In the meantime, we get the GAO describing the inability of various government agencies to come to a consensus on who should be in charge of delivering expertise in anti-terrorist-financing to countries that need our help.

I truly hope they figure it out before FEMA gets involved.
