Don't Forget New Orleans

It's interesting but not surprising that post-Katrina New Orleans is no longer on the radar of an attention deficit disorder nation. I will always remember reading a report that Republican congressman Richard Baker told lobbyists, "We finally cleaned up public housing in New Orleans. We couldn't do it, but God did." And remember others who hoped that only the "good blacks" would come back and said that the root of the word "Katrina" is "cleansing."
Remember New Orleans.
