You’re on your own, New Orleans

New Orleans, you're on your own.

New Orleans re-elected Ray Nagin as Mayor. Ray “what busses?” Nagin. Unbelievable. Ray “Chocolate City” Nagin. Viva l’incompĂ©tence.

In his victory speech, Nagin said “folks who went to the other side, who went to the red-light district, I forgive you.” Apparently if you don’t vote for him, you’re a prostitute. He later explained that he only meant it as a metaphor. Sort of how I’d like to see Ray Nagin tarred and feathered… metaphorically.

With this election, I wash my hands of this stupid, underwater city. Rub-a-dub-dub. Have fun in the “tub.”
