Nagin Loses His Noggin

New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin took a page out of looney Pat Robertson's playbook yesterday in a speech he gave for a Martin Luther King celebration. From CNN.com:

In his speech, Nagin also said "God is mad at America," in part because he does not approve "of us being in Iraq under false pretenses."

"He is sending hurricane after hurricane after hurricane, and it is destroying and putting stress on this country," Nagin said.

He said God is "upset at black America also."

"We are not taking care of ourselves. We are not taking care of our women, and we are not taking care of our children when you have a community where 70 percent of its children are being born to one parent."

This is every bit as batshit crazy as the things Pat Robertson says. God is not angry with the US, black America, Ariel Sharon, the residents of Dover, Pennsylvania, or any other person or place that these kooks mention. Nagin needs to shut up.
