An Open Letter to Marc Morial
Dear Mr. Morial.
Shut up.
Please. You're embarassing yourself when you try to act as an elder statesman and spokesman for your family.
Your credibility in this town is so poor that, yes, the Convention Center wants to downplay the Morial name because the first thing people associate with that name isn't your father's legacy.
It's YOUR reputation they think of when they hear "Morial," and that plays into the whole New Orleans-is-corrupt meme.
Your associates have been convicted of federal crimes, are cooperating with federal investigations that still may lead to your indictment, and some are already in federal prison. Corrupt activities on the part of your closest advisers have even brought down one of the city's best leaders and most promising politicians.
Your activities and those of your associates have resulted in your own brother becoming a federal felon.
In the wake of the storm, you've abandoned the city to live in New York City. When your name comes up, it's usually in either that context or within the context of criminal activity.
You're an embarassment to us, sir. Please just stop talking.
Sincerely,
YatPundit
