***I saw a clip of Nagin announcing free internet service in N.O., like it was going to rescue the city. Whats up with that?***

Crime control! Get them hooked on free porn and they will stay home catching viruses, hijackers, trojan horses,and worms from the porn sites instead of out knocking people in the head for a few bucks!

Example, them getting angry because they couldn't 'take' with them the appliances. Of course it never occurred to them the next family in need would need those things. Complete and utter "we're entitled" selfishness.

Ah, but they did end up taking those things. The article says they had to "fight" to keep the appliances, and the DiMaggio's agreed to let them. Probably not worth the headache and hassle to force them to bring them back. You're right, it is certainly a "we're entitled" selfishness.

How about this part:

"Further, Brown said, the family was never provided with money he said the church promised to help them return home."

Freaking ingrates.

My husband and I lived in Grenada for 2 years, and my mother now says that living in a 3rd world country was pratice for this challenge. It is so sad, but New Orleans reminds me of Grenada now.

"That leftist psychologist is an idiot."

No, he is not an idiot, just the product of a profoundly Marxist academic system. By the way, isn't "leftist psychologist" redundant? ;-)

I think the psychologist at the end is as bad as the Browns. He totally excuses their actions. Oh, they were angry because they were forced to accept charity. No, they weren't forced. They could have turned it down and figured something out on their own.

free internet service in N.O.

Hey, I read about that. I'm going to sell my house and move down there. That's really a great deal. Nagin is such a genius. He knows what people want.

It never bothered my worthless brother-in-law (If you know him he probably owes you money). He even took his own mother to the cleaners several times promising to pay her back but never has.

I once had the privilege of spending an hour and a half chatting with your former mayor, Mr. Morial. I was impressed with his ability to talk for that length of time without actually saying one single thing. Do you have any better mayoral prospects on the horizon?

Giving will always entail, a suffering of souls. Give freely without pre-conceived notions of gratitude, or you will suffer from pre-meditated resentment. These "givers" should be deeply ashamed of their publicly announced sniveling, pride filled bs.

Sometimes giving unethical people the benefit of human kindness is like putting a diamond ring in a pig's snout. I knew at once these people were sty material when this appeared in the article: "He denied painting "MD Sucks" on the side of the house. His wife denied knowledge of any vandalism." If they had any decency, they would have painted over the offending words before they were even noticed. Because they allowed the graffiti to stay, they bought into what they said and were brazen enough to deny knowing anything about them.

"Living in that environment and having someone watching over your shoulder wasn't worth crap," he said.

Fine. Try living on the street. Wow, what a bunch of ingrates.

I spent five minutes with him, didn't hear a word he said, I couldn't get over his penciled eyebrows and makeup.

I agree, Nagin is quite extroidinary at sounding good saying nothing. I don't know ho would be a better mayor at this point. But, as I have said before, I am having a BAD day. Ya know, one of those days where yacan't even catch a glimmer of light down the tunnel. LOL, venting is great. I literally just started laughing when I pictured Nagin at this meeting today. When he would psuedo-talk, the other leaders at the table would rub their eyes, look away, anything to keep from exploding! Nagin was driving everyone nuts!
