This ought to be good. Here's an excerpt from Rice in USAToday about Hurricane Katrina:

"But to my country I want to say this: During this crisis you failed us. You looked down on us; you dismissed our victims; you dismissed us," Rice wrote. "You want our Jazz Fest, you want our Mardi Gras, you want our cooking and our music," she continued. "Then when you saw us in real trouble, when you saw a tiny minority preying on the weak among us, you called us 'Sin City,' and turned your backs."

And how many millions (billions!) have been donated to Katrina relief (not counting Federal govt spending) by the Americans that "failed" her beloved NO?

You beat me to it. I was going to post a link to her comments about the response to Katrina and say she should keep her mouth shut and stick to just writing for the Lord.

LOL....I can get good jazz elsewhere and already know how to cook cajun....Louisians has more than one bijou and so does East Texas. New Orleans can drop off the face of the map for all I care.

So, New Orleans, what happened to all that loot you took from us for overpriced drinks and hotel rooms?

Sounds like she's got a mighty big house in La Jolla, with live-in help bringing her treats. Why hasn't she taken in some hurricane refugees? What, has she turned her back on them or something?
