Dum LA politicaians are all CORRUPT, the only thing they covet more than money is raw power. AND you don't think some WHITE LA DUM is going to let some BLACK DUM MAYOR get to uppity now do you. NEVER EVER FORGET DUMS ARE THE BIGGEST RACIST ON EARTH

ROTFLMAO!!!
Over our taxpayers dead bodies!!!
I pick: 3. all of the above
Actually the rest of the state is pretty conservative and not insane. The problem has been in the NO area because of the stranglehold of the corrupt dems there. She is hanging on tight so that the dems stay in power. She did not win her home parish or city.
How about a duel? Shotguns at 3 paces?
"Governor Blanco just said on Fox News Channel that Mayor Nagin does not have the authority to order evacuation of New Orleans, that the authority rests with her....and she doesn't have evidence that it is unsafe!"
...
More power playing on Blanco part while the stranded lives lay in the balance.
Meanwhile in an alternate universe.
My local news stations keep saying that Nagin has ordered a mandatory evacuation period. IMO all people should be evacuated so rescuers won't have to keep making repeat trips to same areas, it wastes time and energy needed to move onto other situations. The stranded will eventually experience broken gas line fires, serious bacteria disease Hepatitus, etc.
And yesterday the Governor's daughter was on CNN (I think) justifying her mother's slow response in calling up the LA National Guard to the fact that so many were on deployment in Iraq. What BS!
Hummm.... and who would define the pragmatic and stubborn? Seems to me that in the Second War of Independence a half-million men died in an attempt to prevent the Federal Government from doing just that.
Thank God for State Constitutions, no matter how poorly written.
And what does Oliver Hardy to do with the Keystone Cops, or are you just using that gif of him laughing, to show that you're laughing ? :-)
ping Post 195 and this thread
I'm seeing a bunch of 82-year-old delusional widows moaning, "I want to stay on my porch."
I'm also seeing a fat, middle-aged, doughy, spineless governor..."I'm in charge. Don't cross me or I'll cry...."
How about a drinking contest?
LOL ... Just for that, Here's a picture of Blanco and Mr. Bill. OOoooooo-NOOOOOOoooo!
From the sound of things, they've already had one of those. Still a tie. ;-)
Does anybody remember seeing photos of National Guard delivering MREs to the Superdome prior to the hurricane? As I recall, they delivered 360,000 MREs. It was estimated there would be 30,000 people there. Does the whole world have amnesia, or am I hallucinating?
"...has no legal, controlling authority" hum, where have we heard that before?
I didn't mean alcohol. I meant water. Just hand them each a straw, and let them stand in the streets of New Orleans. Whoever drains their street first, wins.
An unfortunate turn of phrase?

CORRECTION: Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life.
Bluto later became Senator Blutarsky, Blankeaux became Gov
