“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives.

If Republicans want to be remembered as the party that destroyed New Orleans, they can go right ahead and do it. I'm sure the political damage they would face from losing an enitre city on their watch will be felt for years to come. Republicans can't afford not to rebuild the place. Not in the politics of the country today.
