Nagin has shark-jump moment

Finally succumbing to the stress of having his dysfunctional, corrupt city destroyed by federal neglect and a category 4 hurricane, New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin claimed today that his city was destroyed because "God is mad at America."

Why? Because "he doesn't approve of us being in Iraq under false pretenses. But surely he is upset at black America also. We're not taking care of ourselves."

Nagin also said God wanted New Orleans to be a "majority African American" city again, using the adjective "chocolate" to describe his (or God's) vision.

In addition, Nagin also described an imaginary conversation with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., whose birthday Nagin and other city leaders were marking. He said King would have been dismayed at the prominence of black-on-black crime and the way "young men hate each other so much that they look their brother in the face and they will take a gun and kill him in cold blood."
