Comments on Ray Nagin Says God Caused Hurricanes, Wants New Orleans To Be "Chocolate" City

"Could you imagine the outrage if a white politician made this statement?"

Yes I can. Pat Robertson has made similar statements and, although he's not a politician per se, the MSM, liberals, and even conservatives jumped all over him for it.

Of course, Nagin "mitigated" his comment by saying that God is mad at us for "being in Irag under false premises."

Ray Nagin is a moron. I felt sorry for him during the hurricanes but he basically showed everybody how ridiculous he is. A chocolate city? God caused the hurricanes to kill those too poor to flee the city? I can't believe the idiocy of that guy...it's on par with Bush.

I never felt sorry for Ray Nagin -- he demonstrated his incompetence repeatedly. I hada hard time even feeling sorry for the people of New Orleans -- after all, they elected the idiot.

And let's remember that Bush graduated Yale with a higher average than John Kerry -- and has a Harvard MBA. That alone proves he is no idiot. What are your credentials, jackass?

For the record, white politicians do make statements like this. Senator Hank Erwin said, "New Orleans and the Mississippi Gulf Coast have always been known for gambling, sin and wickedness. It is the kind of behavior that ultimately brings the judgment of God."

As a progressive New Orleans resident, I am as outraged by Mayor Nagin's comments as I was by Senator Erwin's. I voted for Nagin because he was an outsider in the corrupt New Orleans political scene. With this kind of language, however, he will lose my vote in his bid for re-election.

I actually agree with his stance on the war and the need to curb violence in the black community. Unfortunately, Mayor Nagin's comments only serve to divide our city in it's gravest hour.

Interesting I didn't know God really had a particular opinion on the ethnicity of New Orleans.

Actually, I think I'm offended with your comments, "Where is Liberal outrage?", you were so quick to accuse many of us for not saying anything about it. In fact, I read many Liberals who found Nagin's comments to be inane, offensive and stupid.

Even for me, I regarded his comments offensive and pathetic.

And oh by the way, I'm Liberal and you knew it.

And yet you still say that we do not demonstrate any kind of outrage? Please.

I just want to hear the response from the mayor of Hershey, PA:

Um... If you're going to be chocolate, then we're going to have a Mardi Gras celebration, dammit!

He said what everyone else has thought before. I'm from New Orleans, trust me- I'm white and have faced tons of racial comments thrown at me as far back as I can remember. What more now??could make me feel anymore unwelcome in the city I was raised in. Why don't they just take me out back and shoot me?
