RE: Peter King gets a Pass from me.
Considering the conditions haven't improved further than they have since August of last year when Katrina hit, these are the kinds of messages the area NEEDS to have pronounced in order for real action to be taken. Pete gets a pass from me. I think the country's goin' soft on the real issues ...

What good will any of that do if your city is on the verge of re-electing that moron of a mayor you guys have?!?

A little follow up:
NEW ORLEANS IS IN OUR THOUGHTS. From Doug of New Orleans: "I just wanted to thank you for the article you wrote on New Orleans. You have no idea how much it brightened many of my friends' days as it circulated throughout our group. It is great to see someone still writing about something that has largely and seemingly purposefully been forgotten by most of the nation and the government. While I don't agree with everyone sitting around and waiting for help, it is obvious the job here in New Orleans is much too large to be done alone. We need the help of the nation, even though its eyes are not currently turned our way." King: I promise you I won't forget. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/200...te.levy/1.html |
