At least other states are learning from our frickery so this kind of shite doesn't happen on a whim by other Mitch Landrieus trying to make a name for themselves.

Yeah I saw that update on my phone this morning...and thought well, hell, maybe she's not so liberal after all. She's already done some things that make her look like a RINO...but maybe she's more conservative than I give her credit for.

Do you think Nola would give the statues they tore down
to us in Bama? Robert E Lee would look on my land.

Alabama obviously has better leaders than we do.

Mitch is too stupid to sell the statues. Only Liberty Place wouldn't have multiple takers.

Oh he plans on selling them. Everytime someone NOT within his circle indicates an interest, however, he adds another stipulation go the bid process. It now has more clauses than a grammar textbook.

Will not accpet bids from individuals
Will not accept bids from groups that plan to display them WITHOUT the proper informative displays
May not be displayed outside in Orleans Parish
Will not GIVE them to any entity.

He'll add something else, before long.
Only his ol' buddy John Cummings and his slavery museum in Nine Mile Point will qualify before it's all said and done.

We could easily have done this, but we elected a democrat, because we're stupid.

WEST POINT! HOOKERS!

Yeah, right. DEMOCRAT!

So this allegedly conservative state chose to add regulations, take away power from local municipalities, and create a new government commission over this?
