This Army dude mayor is a certified dumbass.

Yeah, he fooled a lot of people by waving his credentials, but he's a complete fraud as a leader. He's playing race politics and is as corrupt as the loon he replaced.

Shreveport property and casualty insurance fiasco.

quote:

---

Under the new plan, the city has just $50-million dollars in property and casualty insurance. That's more than 90 percent less than before. Yet the city's paying $185-thousand dollars more.

The council voted to pay the invoice for the current $50-million in coverage to prevent a lapse.

But it voted not to pay a $250-thousand dollar fee to Frost Insurance of Dallas, which brokered the plan. Frost is the same company that employs Roddrelle Sykes. He was the broker for two other plans the Perkins administration made controversial switches on. And he was politically connected to the Perkins campaign.
