Nagin on CNN right now saying he needs to get his policemen and firemen out of the city and get them physical & mental evaluations, because they just can't take any more.

He's thinking maybe they need to go "somewhere like Las Vegas that has lots of hotel rooms." FEMA isn't sure they can pay for that, so he told them, "Screw it, I'll pay for it and find the money somewhere."

Sheesh.

Pay for housing officials that were guilty of dereliction of duty I suspect he wants to get them out of the way before they shop him.

LOL. Tell 'em to go make the money at the blackjack tables....... after their mental evaluation, of course.

From Lynn Hyder, Alliance-endorsed chaplain serving with the New Orleans Police Department:

Friday, Sept. 2, 2005, 9:25 a.m. EDT

So many of you have graciously asked what you can do to help and where you can send money. I received word last night that the American Red Cross has been asked to leave the Greater New Orleans Area because of their ineffectiveness. Now, certainly the circumstances are dire in New Orleans, but the ARC has been asked by Aaron Broussard, Jefferson Parish President -- the equivalent to mayor -- to leave even JP. I lived in Jefferson Parish. Like many of you, I saw the convoy of ARC vehicles arrive in the city, but haven't seen them since.

Nagin says his police need a little R & R in Las Vegas?

You MUST be kidding.

Anti-Nagin Sarcasm Torpedo ARMED. FIRE!!

Either
1. He's projecting,
or
2. They've told him everything worth taking has already been looted, and they need fresh victims.

Prayers for ALL!
