Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Many blacks don't want to go back to the city that failed them

LA Times via Houston Chronicle:

Displaced residents of this city — especially the poorest blacks, who were hit hardest by Hurricane Katrina — are pondering whether they will try to return to a town the tour guides often missed, one that has suffered decades of crime, corruption and grinding poverty.

"Katrina had a tremendous impact on the black people who lived here," said Lance Hill, director of a diversity training program at Tulane University. "This city was tough on a lot of them even before the hurricane. A lot of them were already unemployed or had minimum-wage jobs. Many of them were renters. They don't have anything to come back to. A lot of them are just not going to come back."

They should also reflect on how voting for Democrats failed them. New Orleans has been under Democrat rule forever. Louisiana Democrats also control the Governor's office. Both of them faild miserably to get them out of harms way. While the federal government has been criticized for not moving fast enough after the storm, it did get them out of the mess the Democrat Mayor and Governor had left them in. While the story does a good job of telling what awful conditions they lived in before the flood, it failed to mention the Democrat's responsibility for those conditions.
