American Samizdat

"Add Rep. Richard Baker to the list of congressional Republicans who have made unfortunate comments about hurricane victims - although he's the first we know of from Louisiana. The Wall Street Journal's 'Washington Wire' reports comments Baker made this week to lobbyists: 'We finally cleaned up public housing in New Orleans. We couldn't do it, but God did.' Baker explained later that he didn't intend flippancy, but has long wanted to 'improve' low-income housing."
