Poor 'ole us down in New Awlins..... again
Well, our ole friend Mayor "Poor Me" Nagin from New Orleans is at it again. Now let's all get out our crying towels on this classic quote he made before a Senate panel yesterday: He said Katrina exposed "an ugly underbelly" of poverty, particularly among the area's black population, and he questioned whether the country had "the will to fix it." Did you hear that ? whether the country had "the will to fix it." So I ( since I'm part of the country ) and you ( since you are part of the country ) are supposed to fix the "ugly underbelly" of poverty down in New Orleans. What are we supposed to do that might help ? Send more malt liquor so the able-bodied young men down there sitting on their front porches whining about how bad things are can get even worse ? How in the world did the people of New Orleans re-elect this guy ? Here's my advice to my brothers and sisters down there: Do what my family there is doing...... WORK !
