But Butterfly, the comments were not from republicans or democrats, alone. The issues were started by blaming people and the country is very tired of playing the blame game. The contempt for the mayor is because of his callus attitude on the subject of helping the survivors, his inability to take responsibility for his actions, his lying, all tied with the fact that the city has remained the same as it was before Katrina in regards to the government, with the cronyism and nepotism still fueled by corruption. He has been reelected, which to me tells me that the people themselves don't care, the opposing candidate was not only a better choice but would have seen some closure to some of these 'touchy' issues. To date no one there has suggested that the mayor be brought up on charges for the loss of life, which is the right thing to do, nor has anyone demanded him to resign for his chocolate city comments. If the people of N.O. wants to spend the money we the tax payers gave them, then they should rebuild the neighborhoods, the schools and help bring the people back to the city, not worry about the musical park, the homes for musicians and other non-vital or non-working people. It amazes me to hear that the city will still not let people tear down their homes, homes still full of mud, muck and mold to put a new one on the same lot.
