Today, Hugh Hewitt said that 3 people had been indicted in Louisiana about the levee.....one was a Mike Brown and since another Freeper said that Campbell Brown's father was in jail, I wondered if Mike Brown from Louisiana was Campbell Brown's Father.

I think Campbell's father was the insurance commisioner. All our commissioners of insurance go to jail after their term. Sort of a tradition.

What everyone doesn't understand about La is the extent to which Louisianians detest outsiders. There is a clannishness. La people will defend their crooks to the hilt. And if you are an outsider, they will defend the devil himself if you come in and criticize them.

And state govt is run on the rules of nepotism. You get into power and all your friends, in laws, relatives, cousins, college roomies,,every one is on the payroll or gets govt contracts with big rake offs and kick backs.

I got a speeding ticket, a bad one, right after we moved back here. No less than six people offered to have it fixed and it was fixed. We got an assessment for taxes on our house and I complained about it. I was asked in genuine horror if I didn't know I was supposed to bribe the assessor. The law is routinely broken, people get away with all kinds of crap here that would never pass in another state.

The state is corrupt from top to bottom. And nobody wants it changed much because everyone benefits!!!!

Ann, I am not sure of the first name "Mike" but Campbells father whatever his name is has been indicted for fraud. Not sure what it involved.
