Mitch Landrieu, Arnie Fielkow, John Georges, all take former New Orleans recovery czar Ed Blakely to task for his comments recently about the city of New Orleans.

 

Among other things, Blakely -- who left his post in June -- predicted New Orleans will no longer exist in 100 years. He also forecast race riots in the near future for the city, saying that "everyone's a racist" in New Orleans.
