40cakesNOLA mayor criticizes NYC.
Upon being criticized for the delay in rebuilding New Orleans one year after Katrina, mayor Ray Nagin replied, "You guys in New York can't get a hole in the ground fixed, and it's five years later."
Because debate over how best to build a memorial/tourist destination is totally the same as rebuilding a devastated city and bringing back its residents and restarting the community. Seriously.
