It is up to the people of Louisiana to clean house -- if they still want these liberal corrupt maggots (the so-called governor and mayor) to continue to destroy their state, THEN LET THEM PAY THE FREAKIN' BILLS --- not the rest of the U.S. taxpayers!!!!
Well said. Let LA figure out a way to bring private biz back into the state for reconstruction projects. No one is going to rebuild UNTIL the levees are shored up, anyway. LA right now is a very bad investment. In a few years, things will improve but not until then.
The welfare vote is strong in LA. It took years to build and it is going to pay off.
Try electing new leaders when the GoverNOT cancells the elections!!!!
This STATE NEEDS HELP... not financial but political... Please can we have an overthrow here like they had in Iraq??? Hell they get to vote... but since all the voting busses..oops school busses were flooded due to criminally negligent missuse of public funds to secure the levees,, Bunko cancelled our elections.... I guess she learned a thing or two when she had that nice visit with her patron Saint Chavez just before the hurricane.
The people of LA brung her to the party but they have not been enjoying her dance. MeMaw will be turned out to pasture if she ever permits a vote again.
The one thing I worry about in not giving the feds more emergency powers is this: Is it fair that Texas and Mississippi, blessed with grownups in charge fared relatively well in hurricane recovery, but in the case of LA, because the pols were so inept, the fed had to more or less stand by wringing their hands because they didn't have the standby power to go in and take over from an incompetent emergency management team? I don't want to federalize disasters, just give the feds more ability to step in if the things that need to be done are not being done.
