Hurricane Katrina Wayback Machine

How fitting that on the anniversary of last years hurricane Katrina, (the first hurricane ever propogated and executed by a sitting president and his administration, utilizing the then experimental "super secret racist hurricane machine") that Mayor Nagin shows us what makes him the leader we came to know and love during the tragedy.

Who could ever forget Mayor Nagin proudly leading the city through those tough days and nights while perfecting his communication and administration skills right in front of our very eyes.

Navy Commander /Mayor Nagin has chosen to once again stick his air jordan's into his mouth almost as soon as we almost began to forget how f'n stupid he can be and apparently still is by ridiculing the progress being made or not made at ground zero as we all know by now. In spite of the fact that I myself advocated the swift rebuilding of two new twin towers slightly modified and the political bullchit that has overtaken the project, the Mayor of New Orleans has enough to worry about at home I would say, although his outspoken words do have some truth to them.

Who better to critique and ridicule the somewhat discombobulated backwards moving progress going on at Ground Zero after the terror attacks of 9-11 than Mayor Nagin and his NOLA administrative all stars.

After all, ground zero is there thanks to the actions of 19 radical arab hijackers and millions of Islamists that hate America's freaking guts, of which there is a big difference than what occurred in New Orleans. We all know you and your followers hate the man and the president as much as the next jihadder, but their hate exceeds even Al Sharpton and Spike Lee on a good day.

So how about you and your constituents getting over it and getting to work instead of waiting for the taxpayers of the US to come to the rescue again and again. I mean, it's bad enough we're all gonna foot the bill for this act of God, and as willing as we are to see the chocolate city back to full strength as soon as possible, must the government to do all the work too?

In commemoration of that fateful event 1 year ago, I am breaking out some of the Chicagoray archival photoshops along with an editorial from the New York Post regarding the Mayor's Ground Zero remarks . These parodies were made during the disaster last year to ease the tension per say. By no means am I or was I making fun of the many citizens that were let down during that trying time by their local government in all ways imaginable, causing more death and misery than should have occurred, just the mayor, his administration and their collective ineptitude.

NAGIN THROWS A STONE - New York Post Online Edition: Postopinion: "August 26, 2006 -- Ray Nagin, in his own way almost as much a disaster for New Orleans as was Hurricane Katrina, deigns to crack wise about New York City - about Ground Zero, actually.

Who can forget Mayor Nagin - the fellow who dissolved into hysterical sobs, on national TV no less, at the height of the Katrina crisis a year ago.

Remember the utterly false claims about how evacuation centers were being overrun by gangs of heavily armed rapists and murderers?

And whose police force was it that virtually deserted its posts in the dark of night? Ray Nagin's."

Indeed, Nagin exacerbated the crisis in the first place by failing to develop realistic evacuation plans. (He's also the fellow who later vowed to make sure that The Big Easy remains "a chocolate city" - but that's a topic for another day.)

Now Nagin tells CBS' "60 Minutes" that "You guys in New York can't get a hole in the ground fixed and it's five years later."

Well, OK.

He's not totally wrong about everything. read full editorial
