A good NOAH/Nagin/City Council recap

Posted by Kevin Allman on Sat, Aug 9, 2008 at 4:35 PM

I just tumbled to Schroeder's wrapup of Thursday's city council meeting over at People Get Ready. It's really well-written, but what makes it a real keeper is the fact that he posted two interesting recordings. One is a broadcast of Mayor Nagin's remarks at the hearing, and the other is a call to WWL-AM's Spud McConnell by Karen Gadbois of Squandered Heritage, who "wanted to make some clarifications." And she does. (Click here to hear it.)

But, dang, Spud -- next time you get a whistleblower like Gadbois on the horn, ask her some questions and let her talk, eh?

Let callers talk? Dumb is as dumb does. Spud would have to actually be open and willing to learn something.

I find it funny that people like Spud say they encourage all these business people to not leave and invest in the city, yet day after day spend their time being negative. If I didn't live here and see positive things for my own two eyes I would leave too.
