In response to my request, Freeper onemiddleamerican put together these two photos that perfectly illustrate both the ineptness during Hurricane Katrina and the current ineptness of the Gulf of Mexico oil crises.

NOTE: In the case of Katrina, your picture illustrates the ineptness of the Mayor of NO.

Seeing the buses reminds me of the kid who hot-wired one, picked up people along the way and drove out of NOLA. They chipped in for gas $$$ and made it to the Astrodome in Houston.

There are some significant problems with your photo-opinion. First of all, the buses were all owned by a private company. What law gives the mayor of a city the right to take that property? Maybe the owner wanted the insurance money for those buses because he knew that if a bad storm hit the city, there would be no schools open afterword and no need for his business and those buses. Second, where are the drivers for those buses? They weren't sitting around by the phone. They were on the way out of town with their families. Third, and most important, the people who stayed behind were, for the most part, riding out the storm and refused to leave. How can the government go door-to-door and forcibly remove everyone from their homes with only hours to go before the storm hit? As far as your photo of the boom, it comes out in large flatbed loads, not piecemeal. I pass truckloads of that boom everyday on the way to and from work. I see nothing in that photo that suggests that it is not being produced and delivered as quickly as possible.

Great pics - they say it all - (two thousand words). Both the result of democrats in charge. This could (should) go viral.
