If they rebuild the city (OK, not "they" -- the taxpayers), will it be known as New New Orleans?
Inasmuch as the city has a French name, was it not inevitable that they'd lose in the end?
I don't think it's funny, simply because I view the whole thing as tragic and sad, and there are innocent people caught up in all this..
Well since it's a humor thread.
Lack of Bush Eloquence Imperils Hurricane Victims
by Scott Ott
(2005-09-01) -- Fears increased today among hundreds of thousands of refugees from the hurricane-ravaged gulf coast as they faced a Labor Day weekend with little hope of an eloquent speech from President George Bush.
As today's New York Times editorial indicated, the president "gave one of the worst speeches of his life yesterday, especially given the level of national distress and the need for words of consolation and wisdom".
Instead, the president devoted his first major post-Katrina address to laying out what the federal government is actually doing to help with disaster recovery.
One New Orleans man, currently living in the 'Plaza End Zone' section of the Superdome as he awaits news of his missing family members, said, "I can survive for some time with little water, no food and highly unsanitary conditions...but if I don't hear some poetic words of comfort and stirring verbal imagery from the president pretty soon, I'm a goner."
A White House spokesman said additional speech writers have been flown in to accelerate completion of "a magnificent, almost-Clintonesque display of rhetorical compassion." However, it could take up to a week of pronunciation rehearsal before the president is ready to deliver the speech to the nation.

Ain't many Skinnies in N'Awlins though, best fed poor folks I've ever seen.
Sadly, your comedy is too true.
The new name? Neoleans?
PC that so funny LOLOL! in F*** up way Rack it LOL!
But it is true
Great image! Are they ever going to shoot to kill? This is insane! My niece and her husband got out and went to Mobile to stay with my brother. They think their house is under water. She's 8 months pregnant, but they had some place to go. I feel so bad for the poor, decent people who are stuck there.
Where's the rapin' and murderin', the robbers and bangers and where are all the lootin' coppers?
Everyone this week must put together your own bugout bag: a whitewater dry bag containing at least - (each item is sealed within two zip-locks bags) two LED headlamps such as Petzl Plus 4 bulb with flash mode, hightech filtration "straw" in a litre bottle{up to 200 gallons} with iodine tabs and orange Gator powder to cover the corpse taste, a 100 oz. Camelbak pack, a Scout bandana, with mouthwash on the bandana to help mask the corpse stench, a dozen+ nitril gloves in your size, leather work gloves, swim goggles, 12,000+ Kcal foods such as jerky, roll of Bounty paper towels for everything {;^), albacore tuna/boneless pink salmon, canned fruits, Swiss army knife, 5-7" combat blade, Gerber ax, Gerber saw(s), rope, several 550# para-cord packs, a means of digging poop catscratch holes, a real first-aid kit, a change of baggy white clothes in warm weather and quality broken-in footware per season, rain gear with 55 gal trash bags for poncho etc., a 3x5 American flag, an 8x10/10x12 stout tarp, AND what ever you think might need and be able to carry this 40#+ long distances such as veg. seed packets and a Good Book. The whitewater bag may well help float you too. This bugout gear includes a holstered handgun and ~100 rounds with rat-shot and hollowpoints and a 12 G. if possible. Rats, snakes, and pack dogs are to be common. I pack a few pounds of quality dog meal for use as bait; perhaps I can adopt a guard dog in the process. Peppermints work for people, kids or not.
A 9mm/.40 medium frame semi with 12+1 plus 4-8 12 round mags in carriers on the belt plus a S&W J-frame in .357 works.
Pre-prepare yourself to defend with Wyatt Earp deadly force and witness horrors of rape and murder in addition to the many unlucky dead. As the pirates in N.O. have demonstrated, they can be anywhere and will kill for your stuff.
Good policy.
