This mayor has just seen his political career implode!

He laid it right on the Governor - called for a maratorium on press conferences. It is all on Blanco yo make a formal request to the President. But, she cannot seem to stop crying.

Did just hear on NPR she has instructed NG to shoot to kill looters. WEll, that's something

Don't get me started on Blanco, but it is curious that Mississippi and Alabama are under control without federal troops. Maybe because the Governors in those two states don't play!

Yes I heard that too. I'm not defening Blanco or the mayor but would like to point out for those that don't know that the National Guard wouldn't be there to control the looting if Blanco hadn't already made a formal request for their presence.
