How horrible... perhaps those of you on the east coast/south can organize some sort of flotilla and help these poor people? -- Nom=de=Plume That could be dangerous.

Of course, he's a smart conservative who understands what needs to be done when it counts. Mayor Nagin and ex-Governor Blanco could learn a lot from this guy. Unbelievable that the citizens of NO put Nagin back into office. NO, corrupt to the end. At least the state threw Blanco out and put Jindal, a conservative, in as Governor. Unlike Blanco I'll bet he'll be able to ask for federal assistance in a proper, timely manner. Can probably slap some sense into Nagin as well. Use those damn buses! |

The humanitarian aid is flowing, and that is good. I wonder how DART will be used, that is, if called upon? |
