Archbishop Hughes vs. Krewe d’Etat
ByAlthough it’s not quite one of the mini-krewes, there’s always a contingent of dancing mockery at the begining of d’Etat. Last year it was about Mike Vick.
This year’s theme was much closer to home, poking fun at our very own much hated Archbishop Hughes, and his hamfisted handling of closing of several local parishes, including the arrest of worshipers (one of whom was Poppy Z. Brite- the horror stupidity).
Judging by the crowd’s reaction, there was little doubt where their sympathies lay.

Then then dancing archbishops having way too much fun with their billy clubs…
Followed by some naughty nuns and their resupply wagon, aka their rolling church:
So I guess the moral is that in New Orleans you should be careful in your battles, because you never know where they’ll be replayed.
