Jack Cafferty really pi$$ed me off on Tuesday with his snarky comments about the President FINALLY cutting short his vacation and doing something about the situation.
The President had been involved in this since before the storm. He pre-emptively declared BOTH MS and LA to be disaster areas so that the Governors knew that Federal funds would be coming to them for their needs. He also, apparently, convinced the LA Governor to finally call for the full evacuation of New Orleans before the storm hit. The morning after the storm hit, the city woke to flooding streets, and it may have been too late to get to those buses.

He added "during the mandatory evacuation" to the link title now. He's not gonna let this go.Rightfully so. This picture illustrates the sheer incompetance and laziness on the part of Mayor Nagin.

That guy might be a leftist infiltrator trying to make FR look bad. I read an article (actually just the beginning of it) where this leftist editorial writer referred to FR as a "right-wing hate blog," so we're under attack here by left-wingers trying to smear FR.

What part of this are you not getting? The busses were not under water when the evacuation order was given. Apparently the Mayor had time to get his family out, but he didn't have time to consider all the people those big yellow things would have helped.

Because they weren't Greyhound busses, don'cha know.Makes no difference. If some of those buses have 100 seats, it could carry 200 people (2 per seat) and possibly more (children sitting on the laps of their parents), at a time.

That is not only possible, but probable.
He more than likely was here to try and make us look bad.
Thankfully, he was ejected.

God bless Bush for walking with the guy. I think I would've ignored him, after his childish tirade.

...do you really think the MSM would want a look at disaster plans of a major southern city to see if they were up to federal standards?...
...do you think a democratic gov and mayor of a city could ever take responsibility for what could be the deaths of thousands?
...the MSM will do whatever it takes to NOT cover the complete absence of responsibility...total incompetence!!
yo mayor?...why didn't you use the buses?
can the T-SHIRT be far behind?

"He more than likely was here to try and make us look bad."
Well, yeah. A favored liberal tactic is to make anyone with an ounce of brains "look bad."
After all, scores of school buses sitting around and absolutely no plan for evacuation or shelter is a rather, shall we say, obvious point.
No matter. The liberals will continue to demand that the evil George Boosh swoop down in his UFO and make the liberal cesspool into a postmodern Garden of Eden for all to enjoy.

Worst part of today is that I am somewhat at a disadvantage due to allergies bothering me.
*sigh*
But slapping the troll felt good.
