who's gone above and beyond the call of repuke duty by actively opposing the rebuilding of housing in his own state.

But the future of the bill is uncertain as Sen. David Vitter, R-Metairie, raises concerns about provisions in the bill dealing with New Orleans public housing.

Vitter, in a press release issued Tuesday, was critical of the bill, saying it proposes to "recreate the New Orleans housing projects exactly as they were."...

"These units will include rehabilitated public housing projects and once rehabilitated, the temporary units will likely become permanent, ultimately rebuilding the old New Orleans housing projects system," Vitter said.

Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-New Orleans, a sponsor of the bill along with Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Conn., said Vitter "is just misinformed."

What a douche. Maybe he'd change his tune if somebody told him there'd be hookers in the rebuilt projects. :eyes:
