Jeff--are you always this contrary, or are you just working overtime tonight? When the mayor finally got around to suggesting people should take this storm seriously, he recommended taking the train out of town--to anywhere.
No it just bothers me when people that are supposed to conservatives become reactionary and alarmists. For some reason there is this extreme need to blame somebody for this. I never understood why liberals always have to find someone to blame when something bad happens but now I'm starting to realize that it's not just a liberal reaction.
I don't know anything about this mayor - he could be a flaming socialist for I know and being the mayor of a major city, he probably is. He also might be a complete idiot as well. As someone who suffered from a speech impediment in my youth, it take offense to those who judge intelligence by how smooth a person talks.
What you are requiring of the man, however, is totally unrealistic and unreasonable. If you just want to find a way to blame someone to make yourself feel better then knock yourself out. The religious nuts found a way to do that earlier by blaming the citizens of the city. You were stand up in that situation btw.
Evacuations of 100,000 people who are not organized is just not that simple.
Door Number One, Monty.
