EDITORIAL: Forward on corps reform

[funkybutt]

This editorial was in the Times Picayune of New Orleans yesterday.

"Democrats have talked a lot about their support for the storm-ravaged Gulf Coast, but their sincerity should be gauged by how willing they are to reform the Army Corps of Engineers.

Unfortunately, a House transportation subcommittee doesn't seem to be taking that direction with the Water Resources Development Act, which it will take up today.

Environmental groups say that Rep. James Oberstar, who chairs the transportation committee, made a commitment last fall to back corps reform. But now, indications are that the House water bill will resemble pre-Katrina versions that are weaker on reform. "...

1. That would be the same Corps that bought all those faulty pumps from Jeb, right?

How about instead of just reforming it, we send 'em to reform school? Or Gitmo?!
