Yep. You are exactly right. They're evacuating almost 3 days before the storm is expected to hit in Florida and South Carolina. What's the common denominator? Both Florida and S.C. have Republican governors. In Katrina, both the governor of Louisiana and the mayor of NOLA (Chocolate Town) were Democrats. Bush begged them to evacuate and threatened to withhold federal funds and by the time they started evacuating it was too late. And they still blamed Bush. And 0bama will get nothing but praise this time.
I convinced my friends and family, or those who would listen, to get out starting that Friday night. My friend, whose house was underwater from the storm surge alone, appreciated the warning. Even a novice like me could see what would happen. But the Dim hatred blinded them to saving people.
You have no idea what you are talking about. A hurricane is large. Volusia County (Daytona Beach) will start to feel the effects today (Thursday afternoon) and it is supposed to last 24 hours. 3 days before? An ignorant and stupid statement. Ignorant in that barrier islands often feel the effects of the rising ocean and swell in advance of the storm and they have to evacuate early before an only way out is closed off. Often, there is only one bridge for many thousands of people leaving and everyone can’t leave at once. Sometimes a post not made is a better post.
