Astrodome at capacity, but buses with evacuees keep coming (Houston 22,000) (D.C. 400)***......Meanwhile, Texas Gov. Rick Perry announced that Dallas would host 25,000 more refugees at Reunion Arena and 25,000 others would relocate to a San Antonio warehouse at KellyUSA, a city-owned complex that once was home to an Air Force base. ....***

Looks like Houston just grew by 100,000 in one week.

Hats off to Houston. Great job.

Houston, I suspect, will be a lot worse off for having had to absorb the thugs from New Orleans. Texas wil be worse off too.

They'd be better off sending them to Mexico. They certainly wouldn't have any trouble getting back across.

It's just a little Texas hospitality.

Here in Beaumont we have some thousand evacuees.

They are our kin, Americans.
