One reason for this is that the ADULTS ARE IN CHARGE.

[ClearCase_guy]

Should that be "sodden return to order"?

[popdonnelly]

The adults have arrived.

New Orleans' sudden return to order

DIMS: "This cannot be BUSH'S FAULT"

[BenLurkin]

Since last Monday, Campiere has sat up, gun by his side, listening to gunshots popping on his street, and the yelps and hollers of looters, all the while praying they would leave him and his wife, Lorri, alone."

That 'desperation' the libs keep mentioning sure got an early start.

[agere_contra]

I'm an accountant, not a looter!

BANG!

[TAdams8591]

Thank God they are getting things under control and now that they're ,rather quickly too, I might add.

God Bless all of them and prayers for the overwhelming, unpleasant and difficult job which faces them.

Soon after, three Texas lawmen rode down Rue Dauphin on horseback

I still don't understand the loud silence of the vacant N.O. police.

[talleyman]

The next to arrive will be the ACLU - to represent the looters.

[Redbob]

"...three Texas lawmen rode down Rue Dauphin on horseback to inspect a reported break-in, a sight that couldn't have been more welcome to Campiere, and one that signified the sudden, and perhaps belated, return of order to the Big Easy."

Perhaps we should just make Louisiana a territory of Texas, like Puerto Rico is to the U.S.

A few decades under Ranger authority might run the scum clean out of New Orleans.

[Recovering Hermit]

I'm sure that this couldn't have anything to do with Bush's arrival.

[Hildy]

Can someone explain this to me....WHERE WERE THE LOOTERS TAKING STUFF TO? I mean, they were taking big screen TVs, right? BUT WHERE were they intending to put them? There was water all around....I'm confused...help me out!

[GOP_1900AD]

Order has returned because the affirmative-acted-upon Mayor walked off the job and now outsiders are running the show.

[Billthedrill]

As a crescent moon rose over the Crescent City Monday, New Orleans changed almost overnight from a lawless city to an occupied one...

I'm starting a pool to see how long it will take some "progressive" to excuse the looting as the legitimate expression of resistance in an occupied country...
