Ray Nagin's a lifelong Republican who only used the Democratic Party to run for office --- because what he is more than either is an opportunist.
That's what blind partisanship gets you.

Good riddance too.

Using your political position to extort money or solicit bribes (same thing really) deserves the lowest level of hell.

Wow...imagine that. A politician is actually going to pay a price for corruption.
Today is a day of days.

The jury only deliberated for just 6 hours. The city is hailing it a great day.

The more time that passes by, the far better Bush looks.

The Democrat Party/Obama/Clintons/Pelosi/Reid/Media/Unions and general liberal nincopoopery of lies and corruption will haunt them for some time to come..

You left out a crucial part...

If Democrats didn't spend most of their time splitting the nation they'd pretty well have mostly nothing to do..

The Mayor of "Chocolate City", who rode out hurricane Katrina in a drunken Hurricane party in a Hotel room while the rescue buses sit idle and his constituents drowned is finally getting his com-uppins'.

B-b-b-bu-bu- but it was Bush's fault.

Nagin is the biggest racist of all.

Are the corrupt businessmen who bribed Nagin liberals?

Ironic post here, since Nagin publicly endorsed Bush, his fellow Republican. Not that Bush has anything to do with this thread...

The school buses sitting in water were a muckraker journalism tactic to sell viewers. In fact the mayor didn't have the authority to commandeer them.
The man's still a sleazeball opportunist asshole, but there's no reason to run on myths.

Oh, had I noticed you were the "liberal, (head in a butt) post ethics monitor" I would have posted anyway...
