Attention Whore: Me, Me, Me


Jacques went down to Baton Rouge and turned up the drama.  Maybe he stopped by the offices of Owen & White to drop off a check.  Jacques is the kind of dude that can't work with people to accomplish something, so he's got to have a crisis and get his freak on when problems come up.  He doesn't care about us, he cares about his political career.
If nothing is done, "we're dead," said Alexandria Mayor Jacques Roy, who led a panel of Rapides officials in explaining the problem and spelling out the needs for improving levees to meet new U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' specifications. "I'll be the mayor of a city in a region that's dead."
Thanks for thinking of your job before thinking of us.  We're already a rotting corpse and Mini Mayor is one of the maggots feeding off us.  Then Mini Mayor contradicts himself again.
"We are different," Roy said. "We're the only one whose levees have been fully decertified."
Jacques has spent hours trying to convince everyone that this is a national problem, now he says Central Louisiana is alone.  Thanks Chris Brouillette and the Levee District.  God help us, this is the Apocalypse.
