Guess it's a good thing that Federal levee funding the libs have been wailing about for the past several days has been cut and rejected or else every cent of  that would have vanished in graft and laundering.

Case in point: A bill seeking to add a member to Bossier Levee Board was amended to include a $48,000-per-year pay raise for the head of the New Orleans Levee Board, which is 300 miles away from Bossier. On top of this seemingly puzzling pay raise, the lucky head of the levee board happens to be, coincidentally, a political friend of the chair of the Senate Finance Committee. Hmmm.
