Lord, please tell the Pope that he needs to leave the science to all of us who don't feel the effects of global warming.

PFT CommenterRay Nagin spent New Orleans' electricity budget on drive-through daiquiris and bribes
The Superdome lights burned out because the city of New Orleans hadn't paid their bills. Former Mayor Ray Nagin had spent the entire city's electricity budget on drive-through daiquiris and bribes.
Ray Nagin was indeed convicted of corruption charges (bribery, fraud, money laundering) in 2014. The Super Bowl blackout was actually caused by a relay device. The daiquiri detail is embellishment but the corruption charge is real.
