Another "Mayor for Life?"

Ray Nagin (seen here playing dress-up like he was in the military...was this some kind of Honore joke?) is up to his old tricks and keeping pace in the race to be the goofiest urban mayor in the country.

New Orleans is on the political radar this weekend because it's hosting Tavis Smiley's annual State of the Black Union convention and Nagin decided to take advantage and give an extended TV interview.

In it, he threatened to basically go medieval on the ass of anyone who dares mess with him.

While we should all practice this brand of self-defense, speaking this way to a news outlet seems both unfitting of a civilized person to talk about and fitting of him at the same time.
