Contractors with White House ties
Okay, so now the media is complaining that the White House has ties to some of the contractors being used to help rebuild post-Katrina. Never mind that Mayor Ray Nagin (D., New Orleans) has this little nugget included in the official Emergency Preparedness plan of that beleaguered city:
During an emergency, the OEP will utilize Cox Cable to facilitate information dissemination.
That may seem like nothing, of course, to the average reader. But did you know that Nagin was a general manager and V.P. of Cox Communications, a cable communications company and subsidiary of Cox Enterprises ?
But, of course, Nagin's a Democrat, and Democrats can use any ties they want to when it comes to granting contracts to their current or former business associates. Right? Especially when it comes to actually writing it into their official plans.
