Get PINKDOME Merchandise!

Catty. Chatty. And Occasionally Trashy.

New Orleans justice

Paul Burka is in New Orleans for the Fifth Circuit of Appeals hearing on whether DeLay should be able to run and represent a county/state in which he no longer resides.

I can't believe I'm recommending that you check out his blog for updates on the goings-on down there, but . . . well, I just did.

I want to meet and physically harm the person who recommended a pic of Burka's head in a giant red dot be the first thing you see when you open the blog.

I'm with you! That's some tacky design.

I am just SO dissappointed in you...sending people to Burka's Blog. It just shatters all credibility for Pink Dome in my mind. I weep for humanity!

(Just kidding. Actually, I weep for Burka: you'd think if someone drove 500 miles to "cover" something, they'd actually write something worthwhile on their blog about it. What I saw was not very good reporting, IMHO.)
