Here are reactions from the NOLA blogosphere:
Cliff says that NOLA shouldn't be mad at Ed because he's telling the truth
Pistolette thinks NOLA brings out the worst in outsiders

Library Chronicles' take on the matter
Michael Homan uses humor to answer to Blakely's claim about the "white man put their foot back on black people's throats".
Adrastos dicusses the "reign" of the "recovery kaiser".
Oyster's take
American Zombie takes on Blakely's mis-statement about NOLA not taking responsibility for recovery
