Brownback is a Senator, a designation that makes any claim to common sense automatically suspect and any presidential ambitions profoundly unserious.
New Orleans suffers from crime far worse than Iraq. Why don't we find a political solution with the criminal gangs infesting that cesspool? Heck, why don't we redeploy the city police and other law enforcement officials from the quagmire to Sitka, Alaska? Divide New Orleans into several cities roughly along dominant gang turf boundaries? Quit sending tens and hundreds of billions of dollars to that cesspool? Oh, wait--that last item might be a good idea, considering that New Orleans properly belongs to the alligators.
I think that's a slight exaggeration.
Oh, good line!
Brownback has dropped onto my "Dinglebob" list in the last few weeks; no way I'd consider him as President.
