Just months after leaving New Orleans, former recovery czar Ed Blakely gave a television interview lambasting the city, saying its people are racists, its city workers are unsophisticated and its residents lazy.

Turn the French Quarter into a National Drinking Park and let the rest flood.
Ed Blakely is a RACIST!
He neglected to mention the corrupt politicians that plague Louisiana.
I hear that the next Mardi Gras is going to be a “Chocolate Mardi Gras.”
Not everybody, but almost everybody.
Typical.....when you give people welfare, they stop working go on the doll......forever. If you don’t give them welfare, they riot and burn down their own city. Just watch.
No shinola!
this city proved Bush right about illegals doing the work Americans won’t do during the reconstruction
Very good idea!
Plus the scuba diving would be superb.
And the new news is?
Would this be considered a “well, DUH” moment?
Speaking truth to power?
Yes.
True dat!
racist, unsophisticated, lazy. Sounds like that coon ass ex of mine, but man, she can cook!
Wait, so a black man can tell the truth, but if a white man does, he gets in trouble.
BTW, this can’t possibly be true.
Liberals believe that those sins committed against dead and buried black people by dead and buried white people are transferred to white people living today. No way that blacks can be racist, given that white people have so much to make up for concerning their dead and buried forebearers.
“...the foot of Whites on the neck of Blacks...”
“...race riots...”
God, not another race baiting goober...
If there are riots in New Orleans, it will be because the media has declared the people there completely blameless, and the rest of the nation responsible for what happened to them.
Who failed to spend government funds on the flood barriers?
Who failed to use the buses to evacuate the populace?
Who failed to vote in people who would make the right decisions on behalf of New Orleans and it’s residents?
I am so sick of this Bush’s fault and the rest of the nation’s fault mindset.
There are some fantastic Black citizens out there. There are also many Blacks who can’t take ownership of anything that Blacks do that is self-destructive. They blame everyone else, and this is extremely destructive.
Has there been one productive race riot? What always happens is the destruction of people and property that leaves Blacks living in a no-go zone for decades.
Who would urge that on anyone, let alone Blacks they think need saving?
Only DB tourists drink in the French Quarter.
