"Yes, Virginia, that's why people like * keep on getting elected." Yeah, I know Nagin is a DEM, but look who he feels he has to pander to!

New Orleans Mayor Blocks FEMA Trailer Park

NEW ORLEANS - Mayor Ray Nagin suspended the construction of FEMA trailer parks in the city after a confrontation between federal workers and homeowners who were outraged that a government trailer park was being built inside their gated community.

6. He had actually endorsed Kathleen Blanco's republican opponent
back in the 2002 Governor election.

Personally I think they need fresh blood in there to clean up the state

2. Why does this tiny minority control the States? Do they get to buy votes?

Oh yeah, they DO get to buy votes, I keep forgetting.

3. The end quote from one of the NIMBY residents
"You've got a thousand locations that are better," protest leader Edward Markle told the New York Times. "I won't be able to take a bath without them seeing me."

Mr. Markle, buy a curtain. Problem solved.

5. How about "Mr. Markle, you are an ass of epic proportions"
So what if "they" see you take a bath. This guy is probably one of those bloated, middle aged rushbots. Like anyone wants to see them. And such a heart. Lost your house? Well, you don't belong HERE, trash. God I would like to slap that asshole a good one right on his pasty white face.
