Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert is questioning even rebuilding the city at all following the rescue efforts.

I'm sorry but I agree. First of all, the first Frenchman Creole who built their house on the swampy peninsula was eating retard sandwiches. And the dipshits who followed after him were even dumber.

"Hmm, let's see--I'll build my house on the sea bed--that sounds like a good idea!"

It's about as intelligent as these friggin' dolts in California who build their houses on stilts on the side of cliffs and then are shocked and dismayed [Tom Daschle voice] when mudslides knock their shit into the ocean and force the rest of us to pay for it through our insurance premiums once their stop loss gets hit and the government picks up the rest of the tab (with our tax dollars--at least those of us who work to achieve wealth).

I say we write New Orleans off as a national tragedy, sequester some land in Nevada, just outside Las Vegas, fill a couple lakes up and throw in some crocodiles and have women parade around all day long topless throwing beads out to random strangers. Let the Indians build ten or twenty casinos and we'll call it New New Orleans. We can even name one of the casinos Mardi Gras and they can rebuild the French Quarter inside.

It's a tragedy that so many people died but can't we be honest and admit that it's amazing it didn't happen before this? To make the same mistake twice is just foolishness for the sake of tradition and I won't lend my support of tax dollar allocation to it.

We got Louis Armstrong, Anne Rice, and some great hangovers out of it all. Let's cash in our chips and walk away with the losses we've already taken--there's no need to commit Harry Carrey just to prove a point.
