DG

 Tonight New Orleans is ringing with the sounds of celebration. Having endured the brunt and brutality of the Bush administration's neoliberal economic agenda and neoconservative political agenda more heavily than any other community in the United States, the city has begun a party like only this town knows how to throw.

Cheers of hooray resonate across the town from victory parties at bars and crowded households. (image/jpeg + 1 comment)
