Blanco has become, in a word, obscene.

There are hundreds of thousands of people's homes and livlihoods in this storm's path, the levees are overflowing again, millions of dollars already lost in business revenues due to evacuation, and a good portion of our refining capacity at risk, and she's talking money to pay city employees, and waving around a check from the federal government.

I've reached the point where I never want to hear the words "New Orleans" or "Louisiana" again -- and I doubt that I'm alone in that feeling.

Does she want to pay the employees that cut and ran?
