"Hundreds of Millions" of Dollars Coming To Louisiana

This morning, the Secretaries of Homeland Security and HUD announced that Louisiana will see "hundreds of millions" of dollars committed to the state's long-term hurricane recovery plans.

While this is welcome news, I just have two questions about this photo published by the Times-Picayune:

1. Where's C. Ray?
2. Where's Ed Blakely? (hat tip to Jeffrey)

Also, why is Governor PBJ hanging in the background? Is it because he doesn't believe that the federal government should be spending money nowadays?

UPDATE: The Advocate reports on the same event, but the photo they published, taken at the same general location - SUNO - has Nagin, but not Governor PBJ or Lt. Gov. Landrieu. What's up with that? And why does the Times-Picayune's photo have PBJ and Landrieu, but not Nagin?
