New Orleans mayor Ray Nagin

I want to make comment a quick on this Ray Nagin ( mayor of New Orleans ) thing. He's in New York right now seeking money to put towards the rebuilding of New Orleans. I'm pretty sure just about all of the country know about the harsh and controversal statements he made about ground zero ( world trade center site ) being "a hole in the ground newyorkers couldn't get fix in five years", Especially with it being two great city's that went through very different but exemtemly tragic events that effected america as a whole. At a press meeting he expressed how he shouldn't have said what he said but doesn't formally apologize. Most newyorkers won't forgive him for the harsh comments in may opinion and that would be understandible if they fell he's not sincere.

Lets not forget the bigger picture. When it comes down to it, it's not about Ray Nagin. Its about one great state that fairing better helping another great state that doing less fortunate. That what makes us the United States right ?. Its not about the person, its not about the politics. Its about the people of this great nation.
