A must read WSJ essay that starts thusly:

So we are sending all the king's horses and all the king's men to fix the Humpty-Dumpty of New Orleans. Put it back together on a sinking wall of mud and see if it falls off again.
Every paragraph is quoteable, every sentence loaded, and every liberal do-gooder big spender will hate all of it. The WSJ has out done itself. Do yourself a major favor and read it. More and more of us just look at that sink hole of corruption and think, "stick a fork in it." All this talk about culture is total bullshit, and I think you may agree after reading the essay.

NOLA may be the best city live in after it's rebuilt. The criminal element is gone, special ops took care of them after the looting. Most of the poor will not return and it'll be rebuilt as a resort.

OTOH Baton Rouge is hosed. 150,000 new residents most of whom are non-producers.

Also, the dems are going to lose the next election in La. Blanco's toast and so is Mary "Can't get people to work on a sunny day" Landrieu. Nagin may get some sympathy vote but you never know.
