I was channel surfing yesteday and came acroos the Cali anti-war protest. As two female commentators were waiting for Joan Baez (mind you I was holding my nose while forcing myself to see what was going on), they held an interview with a near hysterical Congresswoman Maxine Waters. She exasperatingly said that the "rich and powerful elite of NO had already had a secret backroom meeting and they decided not to let the po' people back in NO and we have to fight them." Even the peace-chic commentators were dumbfounded.
There is a conspiracy (I hope) to keep the po' people out of NOLA. It is called building codes.
