Dennis Hastert really needs a clue. While I hope his "questioning" the wisdom of rebuilding New Orleans was made in an honest, searching manner, his past performance leaves me wondering. Is he really just someone who seeks honest answers wherever they may lie, or is he just a big, dumb idiot? Or simply a political hack?
I can't say for sure. Assuming that the House speaker is, in fact, just wondering if New Orleans is important to the rest of the nation, I point him and other skeptics in the direction of the nearest gas station. Or to any one of a number of stories about the economic impact of having the Crescent City out of commission.
UPDATE: This, Denny, is how we do it. Honest questions, not archly ominous ones. There are good questions to be raised, but suggesting bulldozers probably isn't the way to do it.
* True Michiganders and lovers of random-ass trivia among us know that circumspice is Latin for "oh, just look around, will you?" in the state's motto. It comes in handy whether seeking a pleasant peninsula, or just a goddamned clue, already.
