Talking With God
Just when it appeared Pat Robertson had cornered the market on knowing God's will, we learn that New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin has a hot line to Heaven, too. Nagin claims that "God is mad at America."
Nagin went on to say that a rebuilt New Orleans "will be chocolate at the end of the day." I am not sure if Nagin's statements were a misguided attempt to channel MLK or if he was trying to appeal to black voters.
New Orleans was poorly served by federal, state, and local authorities immediately after Hurricane Katrina devastated the city. But now, the city needs someone better than a half-assed hustler to lead them in their restoration.
