New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin, in an interview Wednesday morning on the nationally-syndicated radio show hosted by Tom Joyner, questions President Bush’s ability to help New Orleans recover.

“Maybe this is bigger than he as President can handle,” Nagin said. “I don’t know if he can handle this. I’ve seen this for
2 years - for 2 years I’ve seen this dance.” The Mayor that Bush is “struggling with this whole Katrina thing.”

Because he’s an expert on not handling the Katrina thing, I’ll have to take the mayor’s word for it.

Nagin goes on to say:

“But I am still disappointed that his [Bush's] country has not stepped forward and helped this community like it should have….” (emphasis mine)

I often joke about the fact the LA is not part of America. However, I didn’t know that Nagin that actually believed it.
