'cuz he doesn't have a CDL?

Hey, pull my finger!

[LesbianThespianGymnasticMidget]

Oh and if you assume 60 people per bus.... 805,140 seats

[evolved_rage]

I wonder if there was a union issue for not using the buses.

Nah, just stupidity by Blanco and Nagin and their cronies.

[MikefromOhio]

why would he?

Why didn't NAGIN get people into those buses and get people out of the city????

[TomGuy]

Add in all the city transit buses in the state, and the number soars ever higher.

The following should never have been necessary, but at least TX seems to show more ability to get things done than the NO Mayor and LA Governor:

300 HISD drivers, employees use buses to rescue victims

Posted by NavySEAL F-16 On 09/05/2005 5:32:46 PM CDT · 9 replies · 107+ views Houston Chronicle ^ | Septmber 4, 2005 | Staff` About 300 Houston Independent School District bus drivers and other employees spent Sunday on almost 150 district school buses rescuing hurricane victims from the waterlogged streets of New Orleans. HISD buses also transported military troops from an airfield to duty within flooded areas.

[Perdogg]

The US Army is using some of those buses now.

Fox interviewed some idiot actor or entertainer the other day (one of many). Among his silly statements he said that those were school busses for children and shouldn't be used to transport adults. That fit so well with his other remarks there were no questions about what he meant.

[MarkeyD]

[claudiustg]

Yes, but you see those are school buses for little kids. They need regular buses for big folk! Something I heard from a spokeperson down yonder.

[eyespysomething]

I think its sarcasm.

[LesbianThespianGymnasticMidget]

Sarcasm, and damn funny to boot

[fenian]

More like, why wasn't he driving ALL those buses.

[upchuck]

Welcom to FR.

[Rosemont]

It's Bush's fault. Why didn't FEMA drive the school buses through the hurricane?????

[cajungirl]

I read someplace the bus drivers in Orleans parish have as part of their contract an agreement that they not drive the buses for evacs.

I don't have confirmation of that.

[devolve]

IF YOU DRIVE THEM THEY WILL GO!
