Funny, I always thought of him more as an evacuation expert, seeing as he did such a marvelous job with getting the city of New Orleans to head out before the hurricane, of which they had FIVE DAYS NOTICE OF ITS APPROACH, to head out and stay safe.
Hmmm. Guess I was wrong.
Au Contraire! Ray-Ray had 5 days notice. He didn’t get serious and mention the word ‘evacuation’ until SUNDAY. ONE day before landfall. Whoever left N.O. did so because they had more sense than the local officials- who were in denial, worried about revenue and image.
Like the image of 10+ ft of water, citywide, helped!
The only thing Ray-Ray evacuated successfully in Katrina was his intestinal tract.
He’s delusional AND stupid- with incompetent icing.
No thanks to Nagin, 80% of the population, which pre-Katrina was almost 500,000, evacuated themselves before the storm came through.
5 days notice? WRONG. All of the computer models took it into Florida until Saturday morning when all hell broke loose.
