The generally circumspect and ultra-businesslike mayor of New Orleans, Ray Nagin, gets my personal Stop the Bullshit Award for telling it like it is. Dubya, on the other hand, made it to town today on a special trip to "study" the situation and promise to fix Trent Lott's house.

Marcia Ball's version of Randy Newman's wonderful song about another Louisiana tragedy pretty much says it all.
