Quick - Name Three Words You Would Never Use To Describe Ray Nagin.

Did you pick "recovery" "courage" and "leadership?" Yeah, me too. But a group calling itself the "Excellence In Recovery Host Committee" wants to give Crazy 'Ol Ray an award for having just those qualities with respect to Katrina. Really.

And who is is this, er, Host Committee? The list is indeed a who's who of New Orleans, but more than a few of them didn't seem aware that this was a Ray-Ray hug fest. Apparently those not in the love-loop include the guest speaker, General Russell Honore (ret.), and the Host Committee co-chair, Jackie Clarkson.

I hear the week after next the same Host Committee will be putting on an "Excellence in Human Rights" night, honoring Radovan Karadžić.

That's revolting. Whenever I think of Nagin, I see again a picture of flooded school busses in a parking lot. How many lives?
