Poll question: I have a suggestion.
They should cut the power to the White House, Camp David, and Crawford til the power is turned on in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. Maybe then he will feel a sense of urgency. This story really pissed me off.

Brian Williams Blog from the speech last night.

I am duty-bound to report the talk of the New Orleans warehouse district last night: there was rejoicing (well, there would have been without the curfew, but the few people I saw on the streets were excited) when the power came back on for blocks on end. Kevin Tibbles was positively jubilant on the live update edition of Nightly News that we fed to the West Coast. The mini-mart, long ago cleaned out by looters, was nonetheless bathed in light, including the empty, roped-off gas pumps. The motorcade route through the district was partially lit no more than 30 minutes before POTUS drove through. And yet last night, no more than an hour after the President departed, the lights went out. The entire area was plunged into total darkness again, to audible groans. It's enough to make some of the folks here who witnessed it... jump to certain conclusions.

So is my idea a good one are not?

1. I won't be happy until they back up the sewer system
until it floods the White House.
