WHY SPEND MORE FEDERAL MONEY TO REBUILD NEW ORLEANS
Ray Nagin, the man who completely ignored his most-important responsibilities as Mayor of New Orleans over the past few years, has been reelected. The man who would not order a mandatory evacuation of New Orleans because he was afraid of lawsuits from the hospitality industry will be leading New Orleans again. This hideous excuse for a leader, who told tourists to make sure that they had rooms on the third floor or higher as Katrina approached, has won the endorsement of the New Orleans "voters." I don't think is at all a stretch to say that this man and his malfeasance in office is directly responsible for many of the deaths that occurred in New Orleans during and after Katrina. Now he's going to have four more years to compound his errors.
The primary blame goes to the voters, many of whom voted by absentee ballot and will never make New Orleans their home again. It was race, pure and simple. New Orleans has had a black mayor for 30 years, and they weren't about to let a hurricane wash that legacy away. Now it looks like Ray Nagin is going to get his "chocolate city."
In view of this election, and the type of person who will be leading New Orleans for the next four years, does it really make sense to pour more billions of dollars into rebuilding this city?
