God now speaking to someone besides Bush and Pat Robertson

God, in the spirit of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, is now speaking to New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin, a Republican who registered as a Democrat two days before his election, but who never bothered to find out how a Democrat, or any non-Republican, would govern. Nagin suggested today that the recent destruction brought on by Katrina, Rita, and other disasters means that "God is mad at America."

He also said: "This city will be a majority African American city because that is the way God wants it to be."

Nagin also said he had had a recent conversation with Dr. King. There are a lot of New Orleanians who wish Nagin would spend less time talking with God and Dr. King, and more time addressing their questions about housing, jobs, levees, and schools.
