This administration has proved beyond a doubt that when you put people who have open contempt for government in charge, they will do a crummy job running it.

GR with all due respect New Orleans needs to be rebuilt in a place other than a river delta. Building a city next to an ocean that is 15 ft below sea level is just plain stupid. The Corps of Engineers knows this. You can levy, and canal all you want, and it will not help the situation when the right storm strikes again, which will most certainly happen.

Off topic. Sorry. Back to Cheney. And that rounds it off to 2,540 posts. Laters.
