Although he's apologized, New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin channelled Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell in suggesting that God sent Katrina upon New Orleans in order to smite it in retaliation for Iraq and violence in the black community. Yea, and, verily, He bound the hands and feets of his servant Ray to prevent him from doing a frigging thing to help those he was sworn to protect.
What is just as interesting is that he chose King Day to argue for a Willie Wonka New Orleans. I guess I missed the speech where Dr. King dreamed of a day in which all of God's children would live in "chocolate" or "vanilla" cities.

I feel sorry for Nagin. He looked pathetic trying to apologize.
