It's Time for Eddie Jordan to Resign

Eddie Jordan is a disaster. He needs to resign. He has done the unthinkable -- almost managing to make us forget how incompetent he is at his job, i.e., at prosecuting criminals. His incompetence as a District Attorney has largely been overshadowed this week by the need for taxpayers to pay for his racist employment practices and by his apparent harboring of a fugitive cop killer. We all need to jam the phone lines at the District Attorney's office with calls for his resignation, tell all of our other elected officials they need to publicly call for his resignation, tell our state senators and state house members to impeach him, flood local talk radio with complaints about him, and do anything else you can think of to force him out of office. The Eddie Jordan Should Resign bumper sticker is available here.

I agree, but I don't know how much weight I would carry being a resident of Jefferson Parish. Even though, his mistake still effects us.

How could this mess have been elected into office? I hope the people of New Orleans don't put him in again.

Thanks, Wendy. The crime problem in New Orleans impacts Jefferson Parish. Hopefully he will not only not be reelected, but he'll resign or be impeached long before his current term in office expires.

My husband just said he would call and demand it. The crime most definitely affects us in Jefferson and other Parishes. Mainly, since many work in New Orleans and crime no knows boundaries.

Car bumpers are now becoming a sort of message boards where people put in their ideas, beliefs, thoughts to live by.. and also serve as a medium where people can air their political, or social grievances
