2theadvocate.com: News - Blanco orders remodeling just after storms 12/31/05: Shortly after the two hurricanes, Gov. Kathleen Blanco decided to renovate some of her staff's offices. At the time of her decision, Blanco also was hinting at deep budget cuts to state programs and the possibility of laying off 20 percent of the state workforce.
The project cost $564,838.
The newly refurbished office space on the sixth floor of the State Capitol includes hookups and mounts for two flat screen televisions, Swedish granite countertops, walnut paneling and frosted laminated glass. The floor, which will not be accessible to the public, was redesigned to add three new offices, a conference room and file storage areas.
Oh yes, deep budget cuts for state programs and hundreds of thousands left homeless from the storm and the Governor redecorates! But don't let it get in the way of blaming BUSH for all the suffering post Katrina.
