The administration's promises to the Gulf Coast continue to be proven hollow...

From Talking Points Memo:

Citing the status of the rebuilding of the levee system, the largest commercial insurer in Louisiana, St. Paul Travelers, has announced it will cancel all commercial property insurance policies it has underwritten in the New Orleans area next year as existing policies come up for renewal.

What does this mean? For a region struggling to resurrect its economic base, it's a huge impediment to commerce.

They wonder if the White House press corps will ask the Bush administration about this news and how it affects their long-forgotten promises to rebuild New Orleans. Don't hold your breath. Even Anderson Cooper seems to have stopped caring about this story.
