Find the Brownie

This made my evening.

From the site:
¨The objective of the game, as defined by NY Times columnist Paul Krugman, is to find an important government job occupied by a person with no apparent qualifications other than strong personal, political, or business ties to a member of the administration.

The game was inspired by the compliment that President Bush paid to Michael Brown, the former head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), a few days after Hurricane Katrina had hit New Orleans. After Bush said "Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job", reporters focused on Brown and his complete lack of qualifications for the important job he held.¨
