21 St. Charles Parish officials didn't get the Hawaii memo: Don't go
Across the country and right here in Looweezieanna, polticians and their co-horts took a hint from the negative newspaper articles about National Whatever Conference in Hawaii: Don't go. It's a waste of taxpayer dollars. Even corrupt New Olreans had sense enough to only send one person. 21 St. Charles Parish officials, however, must not have read the paper this year. Everybody in government went, it seems. Even the parish Director of the Retired Services Volunteer Program went. Which brings up another question. Why is there a director for this program? Shouldn't it be a volunteer by definition?
