Can the Landrieu family SAVE NOLA from the Bush Inc. vampires?

[...of J.Temperance]

Can they? I mean, with the Landrieu family history in NOLA, SURELY the whole family will put up a mega fight to keep New Orleans out of the hands of Halliburton and the Fuckhead's team of vampires.

Can they do this? In so many ways, that family IS NOLA, and Moon Landrieu brought SO much to that wonderful place.

They will save their city and protect it for the people, won't they?

1. Gosh

Is nobody going to respond here? :cry:

2. How about the Morials?

Marc Morial finds himself in a position as head of the Urban League that could prove most useful now. He can marshal the resources of all our other cities, including those such as SF, Chicago, NYC, OKC etc., that have experience with disaster and tragedy (if not the cosmic level of federal fsckup we've seen here :grr: )

3. Yes

That's a FAB idea. Combined the Landrieu's and the Morial's, SURELY could save and protect NOLA from the Fascist thugs.

I WAS hoping that somebody could actually tell me IF this is possible, whether these two familes could have a legal basis for taking full control of NOLA from the Feds if need be.

But considering you and I are the ONLY people who've answered my original thread...I suppose I'll never get my question answered and this whole thing will be on page 6 by tomorrow :(

7. morial's family is under attack

i really don't know all the ins & outs but the feds have been trying to put morial away, also william jefferson

i suspect if these two say much, they will be jailed on whatever pretext

9. Is Morial mixed up in that thing with Jefferson's house getting raided?

I heard it had something to do with Jefferson's involvement with some high-tech outfit in Louisville (Louisville? If you're gonna take graft, can't you at least take it from your own constituents?)

Great. That's all we need: a Congressman under a cloud just when we need to push for billions in Federal aid. Cripes.

4. Keep Repug Carpetbagger-Inc Halliburton out of the South !!!

The rebuilding should be done by Southerners affected by the disaster who need a job - "public works".

5. I give up, I ask what I think is a VALID question

I get two answers, apart from my own, and none of them answer my ORIGINAL question.

Welcome to page 6 already.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph.

6. It is ironic that Mary Landrieu drank so much of this

administrations Kool Aide

She was one of the FEW DEMOCRATIC SENATORS to vote for the bankrupcy bill

[...of J.Temperance]

8. This is why hardly ANYBODY is answering this thread

Because the majority of them hate Senator Landrieu, so they don't want to comment...except they like her when she threatens to punch the Fuckhead.

Sure, she's NOT perfect, but I'd rather her than another NUTJOB like Vitter. At least she votes the proper way 80% of the time...it's NOT like she's Zell Miller or something.

11. Well, like Mayor Nagin, I think she's learned her lesson

Did you see the helicopter tour with her on Snuffleupagus Sun.? Dramatic. They flew over the ruins of her family's fishing camp (what in other states would be called a "country retreat"). And even while she was breaking up over that, she STILL managed to get in some jabs at King Dumbass**.

I think she's going off the Kool-Aid cold turkey, as is Nagin.

10. My personal thought... She was right there when Katrina hit and she

had tried to work with Bush (Bush failed her and everyone else), she showed she cared wanted desperatly wanted to do anything she can to help! However, the other Senator (Repblican), I did NOT hear beep out of him, I guess he got lost somewhere.
