Nagin knows the truth about the Governor, but apparently there was a lot of friction between them before this disaster. She is a total incompetent party hack. And he really dropped the ball in getting the city prepared. BTW, he had a phone!
This is going to get known all over the world.
(It was on our live thread days ago!)
I think Nagin's made a calculation that it'll be easier to shift blame to Blanco then to Bush, and he's probably right. Between him and the administration pushing on Blanco, she's likely to take the fall for this. I'd submit the actual blame is about 49% Nagin, 49% Blanco and 2% FEMA.
Huge. Everyone should email everybody (Drudge, The Corner, Bill Bennett, Tony Snow, Laura Ingraham, Rush, Sean, John Gibson, Larry Kudlow, Brit Hume) AND ANYONE ELSE WHO CAN GET THIS NEWS OUT.
In an interview just now on Fox, the governor said "The mauor told me he sent busses into the streets with police escorts and seirns asking citzens to evacuate."
The bus situation has made the main stream.
