The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers were at fault for the levee failures following Katrina and now here they are again building defective flood walls.

No, it is my understanding that the levee failures were due to improper maintenance by the politically-appointed levee supervisors.

What he's talking about was witnessed by a St. Bernard Parish resident whodidn't want to be identified,

I see you have your emotion based hate for the Corps so the unproven accusation by unnamed sources, that just happens to validate your emotion based dogma, is to be blindly accepted as "truth"?

Sorry NO got MORE bleeding Fed Money then ANYONE else to build these dang things. Don't blame us because your local pols were crooks who shoveled fat contracts to corrupt local businesses in exchange for kick backs.
