Graft and corruption have always been a way of life in Louisiana as well, further complicating things.

It seems even before Katrina happened the La. dept of Homeland Security,(not to be confused with the feds,) was under investigation for corruption in a major way.
Seems millions of dollars had been given to La. to prepare for and eventual hurricane disaster. Problem is they had "the freezer disease", much of the cash was uhhhmmm missing!
Not too surprisingly no on seems to know where the freezer cash wound up!!

Check it out here.

Just a link to some locals down in LA who have not hewn to the MSM line http://www.thedeadpelican.com/ (Funniest thing, the guy even copies the Drudge format.)

Also re Katrina:

I'm just flat amazed that the MSM or the dims really want anyone to get off on this particular trip down memory lane.

First the dims/hezbocrats annoint Nagin as the Katrina poster child with the record that he and the rest of that pathetic bunch of ward heelers in Louisiana have got, with or without their well-documented performance before, during and after the storm.

Finally, and perhaps most revealing, is that the same media sources who were so totally biased, unprofessional and incompetent that they don't merit comparison with a Keystone Kops outtake show themselves as having such complete arrogance in addition that they'll replay their sorry performance.

Some people I've known as lifelong libs (including a couple who are deep into the 9/11 Conspiracy Whacko world) were so embarrased by the Katrina coverage that THEY were turning off that crap; Is there such a disconnect in reality in the MSM that they still have yet to realize what they're doing to themselves?

...or maybe they're all just so desperate for something to try and regain their past glory and power that they just grabbed at what they thought was the only talking point they've had in the past two years that got any traction.
