Nagin
Chris Rose has written an article about the in-name-only mayor of New Orleans.
Here's a little taste
The truth is, I don't know what one man can do to fix the problems around here. And that's the rub; we never will know what it would have been like to have an effective leader who unified the community for a common goal and took our fight to those who screw us over, someone who said: This is all wrong.
Right after the storm there was so much hope about bringing the city back. More than 2 years later those hopes have vanished.
As Chris writes
.....we can pretty much rely on our mayor to say or do something of such enormous folly at least once a month that it has become routine and we have now come to accept it as part of the New Normal around here, that's just the way it is
Sad, so sad.
