LIVE - incompetance, insanity, and a major cluster in the making

So, they put General Lee up on a pedestal using archaic methods by today's standards. But 133 years later these geniuses can't get Lee down with all the advanced equipment that has been developed since 1884?

the people onsite who were ordered to do the job are firemen. The city did not have an organized plan or blueprint on how to effectively remove the statue. Landrieu and his cronies never consulted with engineers or people who are skilled, trained, and licensed to do this type of work.

This thing has withstood countless extreme weather events. Unanchoring this thing can't be an easy task. Let's just say, the mayors little party will be delayed.

Why don't all of you naysayers just be quiet and let the good people of New Orleans try to rewrite history? Sheesh! You'd think you guys never heard of book burning or other failed attempts to rewrite history by others.

To be unified we need to get rid of and ban African awards, African scholarships. etc. etc. etc. Don't label anything.

I hope he is still standing at #!...as the mayor with egg on his face explains the issue.."We had a plan...a bad plan that did not work, we will spend more money and try this again"....

On a serious note, when/if they get General Lee down, are they going to rename "Lee Circle"? I would assume they'd have to do that to. What do they plan to call it going forward?
