Imagine if Jeb Bush and Rudy cried more than they worked.

Jeb Bush: GET OUT!! THIS IS A KILLER STORM!! - Five Days before the storm hits. Not 10 hours.

And if you need transport, Jeb would provide.

Hurricane Charlie
Hurricane Frances
Hurricane Ivan
Hurricane Jeanne

No tears from Jeb.

People ready to work in advance.

" People ready to work in advance. " .....

Gee ? what a novel idea,

to the dems/libs of course.

And, you forgot Hurricane Dennis this year already too.

Where is the "10 hours" coming from, exactly? People were told to get out of town at least 60 hours before landfall.

It's not like City of New Orleans officials were telling people in the still-unblemished Twin Tower on 9/11 to "stay where they are and not evacuate the building" after the first tower was struck...oh, sorry, you New Yorkers are above reproach and cannot be questioned, right?

And .. I believe Jeb was prepared for 2 storms within 2 weeks of each other.

When FEMA called and said, "what do you need" - Jeb was ready with his list and it happened.

GOVERNOR Blanco DID NOTHING!!! but go on TV and shed tears. Good grief! We CANNOT BE SO STUPID AS TO ALLOW THESE PEOPLE TO BE IN CHARGE OF NATIONAL SECURITY.
