[Recovering Ex-hippie]

They are already letting the state of LA handle the federal money and reconstruction. I'm furious. If I pay fed tax dollars, I want the feds to have control and monitor that. The last time we let NO and LA handle the fed monies for the levees..look what happened.

Oh well there’s Nagin on my left and there’s Landrieu on my right
And Broussard is the crybaby that I’ll be with tonight
And when he whines about which parish I love the best
I tear open my shirt and I got Jefferson on my breast
’cause I’m the squanderer yeah the squanderer
I beg around around around around around…

Mayor Nagin said if that happened, New Orleans would see none of the money and that for years New Orleans brought in the big bucks that did not stay long in the city.

I thought Don Powell was the Fed in charge of handing out and tracking the money in LA. He use to be head of FDIC, I think.
