Recall Ray Nagin

Harry Anderson, frustrated by the shakedown citizens are getting by Entergy, insurance companies, and the city, is leaving New Orleans:

"New Orleans is like a woman you never stop loving, but you can't live with her either. I have never been less sure of anything I've ever done. I always feel like I could live in the French Quarter forever. And if it weren't in New Orleans, I would."

Chris Rose targeted Ray Nagin for much of the blame. As I've said elsewhere, we need a leader to champion our cause. We haven't heard much from our miserable mayor lately. Someone must be telling him to keep his fat trap shut so he doesn't inadvertently cause harm to the true interests he represents. Who are these interests? Let's just say they're the people who have the luxury of waiting until residents who become frustrated decide to give up. Then they'll buy up the properties that look most profitable.

There are things we can do to fight back, and yes, it takes all of our time and energy to do them. One of the things we can do is demand Ray Nagin's recall. We could also camp out on City Hall grounds demanding his plan to address a long list of issues.
