Is money the reason New Orleans has to wait three more years before even the semblance of protection is in place? What's the city supposed to do in the meantime?
An Open Letter to God
So this is my plea to you: Don't do this to Louisiana again. The Republicans got your message. They are doing the best they can to get planes, trains and buses to New Orleans so that everyone can get out.
The Rovian Politics of Choosing Sarah Palin
Karl Rove's minions may be smiling at the brazen gamesmanship of this pick: but if Americans fall for it, they should know all too well what to expect.
McCain's Disastrous Politics of Gustav
