[StBernard] St. Bernard preparedness chief outlasts 'squabble'

[Westley Annis]

You said the magic work  RUMORS.  It's a shame when people tend to belive
RUMORS instead of the truth.

	- "Charlie Reppel, Rodriguez's chief of staff, blamed the
	now-he's-resigning-now-he's-not drama on a "family squabble" within
	Rodriguez's administration that led to some heated words after the
hurricane
	drill." -
	
	"Family Squabble" my foot. From the article in today's newspaper the
entire
	fiasco was a result of Alan Abadie who once again thinks he runs the
St.
	Bernard government. According to many nola.com postings over the
past two
	years Abadie is known for making decisions without first consulting
his boss
	and when things go wrong Junior is left to clean up the mess. There
have
	been rumors for a while that prominent people in the parish close to
Junior
	have advised him to drop Abadie because he's making him look bad.
Maybe
	Abadie has Junior brainwashed somehow believing he cannot run the
parish
	without him. That is too bad.
	
	It is a shame Junior is surrounded by two people, one who has his
own agenda
	to be a power behind the throne puppet master and the other who is
nothing
	more than a professional lunch attendee. Is it no wonder St. Bernard
has
	made little progess in a years time.
