Louisiana Gov. Kathleen Blanco, flanked by veteran Democratic activists and a union leader, criticized the Bush administration on Saturday for allowing hurricane rebuilding contracts to go to out-of-state firms and low-wage workers.
Speaking to a rally of about 1,000 union members and activists from the steps of the state Capitol, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton also charged the White House with using the crisis to remake the state’s political map by discouraging the return of displaced blacks.
Jackson urged residents of the overwhelmingly black Lower Ninth Ward of New Orleans to return.
SideBear: Never have I ever seen a more incompetent boob in all my life. Gov. Blanko throughout the whole hurricane disaster hasn’t got one thing right. She should take God that that We the People through the Federal Government and our tax dollars are paying for the rebuilding and getting it done.
