Not a clue
What the hell is wrong with Ray Nagin?????
How many lives were lost, how many people have become homeless? How many people still can't come home?
Where's his plan for the future of New Orleans?
Check out the city's website
here is the url http://www.cityofno.com/portal.aspx?portal=1&load=~/PortalModules/ViewPressRelease.ascx&itemid=3647
He's got a hoopla planned for the first anniversary of Katrina. Huh?
What's wrong with him? Are we STILL living in an alternate universe?????
Ray, you can plan this shit, but not the future of New Orleans?
You assbite.
Here's the current plan of events:

(New Orleans, LA) Mayor C. Ray Nagin and U.N. Messenger of Peace and Multi-Grammy Award Winner, Wynton Marsalis today outlined the three-day commemorative days of reflection surrounding the one year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina and the Rebirth of New Orleans.

The chairpersons of the Katrina Anniversary Planning Committee are Mrs. Seletha Nagin, First Lady of New Orleans, Bill McFarlin, Executive Director of the International Association for Jazz Education (IAJE) and Dan Carlin, Chairman Emeritus of the NARAS/GRAMMYS.
Mizz Nagin, what are you bringing as far as talent/knowledge to this "fete"?

Not to mention, that wasn't Ray Ray's finest week.
Great post!!!! It is worse then I thought. I just skim thru stuff and hit and run.
I only got some highlights on what was planned. My mouth is still opened as I leave this comment.
