		<description>Boy things change when you are running for president!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;John McCain said we should tear down New Orleans. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;McCain kicked off his tour in New Orleans, where he lambasted George W. Bush’s handling of the Katrina disaster. (As it turns out, McCain’s criticism was choreographed with the White House as part of a coordinated effort to create the facade of distance between McCain and President Bush.) There, McCain would not commit to the future of the city’s devastated 9th ward: That’s why we need to go back to have a conversation about what to do about it. Rebuild it? Tear it down? Ya know, whatever it is. Just three days later, McCain claimed selective amnesia about his New Orleans comments, saying, I don’t remember ever saying it. Perhaps John McCain remembers celebrating his 69th birthday with President Bush on August 29, 2005, just as Hurricane Katrina slammed ashore.</description>
