There are rumors that the NOPD retirement fund is in question, Rogers has learned, and that the story could break at any time... Developing...
Looks like the scat has coincidented with the turbo-prop...............
First question to be answered: How much of that retirement fund is for cops who are actually on the force and how much of it is for Eddie Compass' phantoms?
Hope this doesn't come as a really big suprise to anyone.
Graft and corruption in New Orleans?......I am shocked............/Claude Raines.......
You'd think an accurate actuary report would improve the NOPD retirement fund's funding status. After all, if a third of the cops don't really exist, that means more money for the real cops.
Problems must have predated the revelations of Katrina.
Since Nagin is so hot to trot to rebuild gambling casinos to pick the pockets of the citz, wonder if Nagin and cronies were dipping into the pension funds?
"Problems must have predated the revelations of Katrina."
LMAO. I'd say that's an understatement by a factor of a couple hundred years.
Once the MSM gets a hold of this story and thoroughly investigates, I'm certain we'll get to the bottom of this...
LOL. Lou, my Man, I thought I was the most cynical sob on the planet.
Kudos, Sir.
Well, now that the cops got caught stealing Caddilacs, they can't give retirees a new Caddy any longer.
wonder if Nagin and cronies were dipping into the pension funds?
If he wasn't dipping into the pension fund, it would be the only thing that he wasn't. lol
Cynic? More of an optimist, actually. But enough of a realist to know that were Nagin a Republican, we'd hear no end from the MSM about the depths of his incompetence. Perhaps even enough that he'd resign in shame. But Nagin is a Democrat, so he'll continue to get a free pass.
An interesting argument for voting Republican, so that the scandals will be revealed. VOTE REPUBLICAN SO THE MSM WILL INVESTIGATE YOUR GOVERNMENT.
