Someone should clear him out

In today's forbidden link to (White) New Orleans Magazine, we find public television personality and Rex fetishist Errol Laborde authoring a "travel" piece which compares recent hurricane damage on the Alabama Gulf Coast to the effects of the Federal Flood on New Orleans thusly:

Recovery there has been amazing. Like in New Orleans, the storm cleared away things that probably needed to be cleared out anyway and now new structures are rising.

With all the crap people give Nagin and Blakely over the kleptotastic botched NOLA recovery/land grab extravaganza... I wonder how far any of that really gets without all this enthusiastic cheerleading from the gentry.
