So, how bout' that Chertoff? Do you agree that by simply declaring a
situation as an "Incident of National Significance," the feds should be
allowed increased authority that could countermand the authority of a
Governor? How about if the Governer resists it?

As I understand it, the Governor retains control of civilian law
enforcement and authority over any state's NG which have been sent to
her for that purpose.

No sane governor would say no to federal disaster relief.

Chertoff is a bigger idiot than Bush or Brown. Apparently the only
people in the Executive Branch following events were Bush's staff and
they were afraid to tell him how bad it was.

You're afraid all the time aren't you, 'tard boy? Tell me, are you open and
honest with your therapist? Do you discuss your unfounded fears with him/her?
Have any medications lessened the effects of your paranoia?
