"Surely God is mad at America. He sent us hurricane after hurricane after hurricane, and it's destroyed and put stress on this country,"

Well, God may create hurricanes, but men invented school buses, Ray. But what man creates, one idiot mayor allows nature to destroy.

But beyond that, I fully expect to see Nagin's comments get similar treatment to Pat Robertson's similar utterances.

Yeah, right.

Mayor Ray Nagin suggested that recent destruction from hurricanes Katrina, Rita and other natural disasters is a sign that "God is mad at America," and also mad at black communities for tearing themselves apart with violence and divisive politics.

Guess this jokel doesn't read or he might have heard that the Pat Robertson bandwagon rolled off a cliff!

He's been smoking the same stuff Pat Robertson got into.

Look for Nagin to put in a guest appearance on the 700 Club in the near future...

You know, this guy just gets dumber and dumber.

I'm sure this comment will gat the same anal exam from the MSM as Pat Robertson's comment did. Well, maybe not....

By the way Mayor, how are those parked school buses doing?

"It's time for all of us good folk to stand up and say we're tired of the violence. We're tired of black folks killing each other," Nagin said.

Nagin finally gets something right. However, he's so totally discredited himself with all the wrong things he's said that it's unlikely anyone's listening.

What is it with black leaders today saying whatever comes into their heads and never being held to account for it? If Pat Robertson would've said that, it would be item 1 on the cbs web site. This will never get that kind of attention.

His 15 minutes are now over. The far left will abandon him now.

I believe that he DID have the conversation. No, really. He did hear voices in his head. Now the VRWC will chalk it up to drugs or stress. Next he will describe the visions. THAT is what I am waiting for. Visions of the poor dead (black) people.

Surely he doesn't approve of us being in Iraq under false pretenses celebrating the evil acts of homosexuals and prostitution.

He said, 'The thing we need to focus on as a community — WHITE folks I'm talking about — is ourselves.'

Let these words come out of the mouth of any white mayor in the country and see how long he lasts...

Ray's playing a dangerous game, blaming God when we all know it was the evil Rove/Cheney hurricane machine that created Katrina....

I don't think God was mad at anybody. Hurricanes happen. The key is how you respond to a disaster, and that is where God comes in.

The Dems responded badly and universally called upon "the Government" for help.

Some blacks responded well - I saw black churches down there handing out barbecue and searching for people who needed help - while some blacks responded very badly indeed. However, some whites (including lower end teaching staff at the universities) fled the city but were among the first to try to return and rebuild - yet they still do not have homes and nobody cares about them because they aren't politically powerful.

Some whites and blacks (such as the corrupt congressperson who had the National Guard hauling his property out of his house) didn't really have to respond at all because they were so well off.

In short, it was an individual thing, and I honestly think Nagin has gone off the deep end if he believes it was a generalized persecution by God Almighty.

Look for Nagin's new book, soon to hit the stands: God Is My Bus Driver.
