[Travis McGee]

I hope that sooner or later the MSM discovers that New Orleans did have a written emergency plan to cover the evacuation of the poor, but that the idiot mayor of New Orleans ignored it, and allowed the evacuation buses to be ruined by the flood, forgotten.

The city leaders had at least two full days to use these hundreds of buses to evac the poor, exactly as their own emergency management plan called for.

Here's the southeast Louisiana evac plan supplement, most recently revised in 2000. Go to page 13, read paragraph 5. It states:

5. The primary means of hurricane evacuation will be personal vehicles. School and municipal buses, government-owned vehicles and vehicles provided by volunteer agencies may be used to provide transportation for individuals who lack transportation and require assistance in evacuating.

Hello Travis

Idiocy from top to bottom. The politicians in Louisiana did nothing, the citizens who stayed did nothing, a total cluster fu$%% and all anyone can do is point fingers at the president.

The president has his good points and bad points like the border problem but the New Orleans death toll is the fault of those who stayed and the politicians and law enforcement who should have force those who stayed to leave as requested by the president.

I saw one repeated comment on an FR thread from a Nuevo-Orleans public school teacher:



"School buses? Who will drive them?"
