Ray-Ray blames Mitch for Mardi Gras?

Ray, "I miss y'all" does not substitute for a housing plan for residents of New Orleans who don't have homes. And Ray-Ray, you can't blame other people in order to transfer responsibility for your own failure to come up with a better housing plan.

Betty Gaynor, reminding Nagin he had grown up just around the corner from her place in the Lafitte housing project, told the mayor he had forgotten his roots. She eviscerated the decision to host a Mardi Gras celebration in February when some residents are still waiting to bury loved ones.

"I'm with you," Nagin replied, placing the blame on Lt. Gov. Mitch Landrieu (D) and tourism officials.
