I put Middle Earth Journal in hiatus in May of 2008 and moved to Newshoggers.
I temporarily reopened Middle Earth Journal when Newshoggers shut it's doors but I was invited to Participate at The Moderate Voice so Middle Earth Journal is once again in hiatus.

Don't rebuild New Orleans where it was.

I suggested that New Orleans should not be rebuilt in it's present location here, here and here and Jazz did here. I never thought I would agree with House Speaker Dennis Hastert on anything but here it is:
House Speaker: Rebuilding N.O. doesn't make sense
WASHINGTON - House Speaker Dennis Hastert dropped a bombshell on flood-ravaged New Orleans on Thursday by suggesting that it isn’t sensible to rebuild the city.

"It doesn't make sense to me," Hastert told the Daily Herald in suburban Chicago in editions published today. "And it's a question that certainly we should ask."
I don't know if I should re-think my position or congratulate Speaker Hastert making a correct, if politically incorrect statement.
