Nagin Breaks Out Of Straight-Jacket
Nagin Suspects a Plot To Keep Blacks Away
New Orleans Mayor C. Ray Nagin has suggested that the slow recovery and rebuilding of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina -- which has prevented many black former residents from returning -- is part of a plan to change the racial makeup and political leadership of his and other cities.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what happened in New Orleans could happen anywhere," Nagin said at a dinner sponsored by the National Newspaper Publishers Association, a trade group for newspapers that target black readers. "They are studying this model of natural disasters, dispersing the community and changing the electoral process in that community."
Nagin's remarks Thursday night recalled the controversy stirred up by his prediction in a Martin Luther King Jr. Day speech in 2006 that, despite the evacuation of thousands of black people in the wake of Katrina, New Orleans would once again become a "chocolate city." The mayor later apologized for the comment, which had infuriated many whites and African Americans.
This man is so paranoid, he needs medication and padded walls. What can you expect from a man who is king among idiots? After all, the people of New Orleans re-elected him. He wants to blame everyone else for his problems, but his inaction has left the city much the same. Debris and cars still litter the road, which the city is responsible for cleaning up.
