Observation of the Day

Mary Landrieu, whom I've always thought of as a vapid sort of Senate chair filler, is truly the only competent sounding individual in the entire New Orleans/LA political hierarchy. The mayor's whining, the ACoE is tap dancing, the governor can't stop crying, the other Senator stands by until called on to babble. Ms. Landrieu stands up there and bluntly makes her points. Corrects previous information, gives no nonsense answers and sounds like the only man on the platform. Wowsahs. I'm impressed and humbly adjust my attitude. Considering the general gaggle of incompetent twits running the show so far, they are lucky to have her.

Amazing who steps up when the chips are down.

Her little brother the Lt. Gov. seems to be doing well, too. Sometimes people coast until they're called upon.

You're right. And I have to say I'm profoundly disappointed in Mayor Nagin and Senator Vitter, Tulane alums both.

"...the ACoE is tap dancing..."

Professional curiousity here, THS. Got any links to the tap dancing?
