The Possible Motive Behind Stan "Pampy" Barre's Cooperation With The Federal Prosecutors
It is apparent that Stan "Pampy" Barre is cooperating, with federal prosecutors, regarding the federal probe into City Hall corruption. Mr. Barre' apparently decided to cooperate after he learned that his cohort, Kerry Decay was sentenced to nine years in federal prison. They were both charged with the same offences. He still should receive the same sentence as Mr. Decay. Cooperation does not change his actions. He still deprived the citizens of New Orleans the benefits of the energy savings contract.
The contract was an opportunity for the City of New Orleans to demonstrate the importance of energy conservation. If it would have been properly utilized, during Morial's administration, New Orleans' citizens may have been encouraged to conserve energy too. What a waste. Energy conservation is very important to preserving resources that are instrumental in preserving our environment.

Stan "Pampy" Barre's Sentencing Date Has Been Delayed Until November 7, 2007
"Less than a week after political operative and restaurateur Stan "Pampy" Barre' helped prosecutors convict City Councilman Oliver Thomas, federal officials asked a judge to delay his sentencing, a sign that investigators believe Barre' can help in more corruption cases.
Thomas pleaded guilty last week to accepting bribes from Barré in exchange for his support for retaining a contract for managing public parking lots that Barré shared with a partner.
Barré was scheduled to be sentenced by U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier on Sept. 5. After receiving an unopposed motion from U.S. Attorney Jim Letten's office Friday, Barbier pushed the date to Nov. 7.
Prosecutors often ask judges to delay the sentencing of a convict whose testimony they need in another case. Because Thomas has already pleaded guilty, the government no longer needs Barré's help to make those charges stick." |Read more|
I hope this does not mean that Mr. Barre' should receive a lesser sentence as a result of his cooperation. After all, he was the one who set the entire corruption scheme in motion. Sure, it is easy now for him to pretend that he is remorseful. He has nothing to lose. If he believes that faking remorsefulness can somehow help him acquire a lesser sentence, I am sure that would not be hard for him to do. After all, he did try to portray himself as an honest and ethical businessman. We all know that was a lie.

President Bush Has Initiated An International Summit To Tackle Global Warming
"Climate change has been singled out as a key point for discussion at the APEC conference, due to start in Sydney in a little over two weeks.
But without the agreement of the world's biggest polluter, the United States, any consensus would be meaningless.
Recently Mr. Bush invited the European Union and 15 other countries, including Australia, to take part in a summit at the end of next month to develop long-term voluntary goals to cut greenhouse emissions." Read more...
