Governor Blanco just said on Fox News Channel that Mayor Nagin does not have the authority to order evacuation of New Orleans, that the authority rests with her....and she doesn't have evidence that it is unsafe!

In order to move all those people out of New Orleans, Nagin would have needed the governor to open up shelters throughout the state, and find more shelters in nearby states. I don't think that Nagin is capable of thinking that far ahead.
Mayor Nagin: "Evacuate New Orleans Now!"
Anybody with a brain: "Where to, mayor?"
Mayor Nagin: "ummmmmm..."

Governor Blanco is responsible to the citizens of Louisiana ...only they can fire her. She has NO obligation to explain her actions to the Federal Government or any other citizen of any other state.

I bet she is not making ANY big decisions anymore It's not wise to make big decisions when you've been drinking . . . or a Democrat.

I think you should send that idea to the MSM organizations. They've got to be getting pretty fed up with her, since she's ruining their "all Bush's fault" campaign. Maybe they'll have one of their interviewers try this on her.
To: newfrpr04
How does she have authority to call the Superdome a total loss without inspecting it, and the authority to call off a quasi legal evacuation?
To: BurbankKarl
I swear she's been doing this to hurt Bush...all along.
What a stupid fool.

Is there NO law for removing a crazy person from office? Shades of Earl K Long! The last certified crazy Louisiana governor back in the 50's. His wife finally had him committed to Mandeville State Hospital. He actually fired the head doctor there, hired his own doctor who declared him sane whereupon he took up with stripper Blaze Starr. Just so you have a little history of Louisiana governors. Left out the one who is still in a Federal pen but that's another story. :o)

and she does an end-around on him? From the photo in post 118 looks like the only thing she's qualified to give the may is a reach around.

"This is more or less confirmation that he will be thrown under the bus when the time comes."
Maybe this is why he left the busses parked in their lots under 10 feet of water - self-preservation.

Oh, and in case you haven't heard. Water service has been restored to part of the city, and the pumps are doing a pretty good job draining the city as well.

Is THIS evidence enough? Or do you need to hear from Dr Death-of-the-DNC and maybe James Lee Witt and his Masters the Krintongs?

Now do you guys believe that she never asked the feds to take over? I told you the pdf was a fake, it wasn't there before and it has no Executive Order or Press Release to match it on her website (well they may have by now); Even by disaster standards if she did it in another way, she never sent it... don't worry...I captured it before it was changed. The letter is legit. But it doesn't ask for the feds to take over. Read the letter and see what she's asking for. Fed money.

Hmmmn, from what we have seen and now know of gov Blank slate, maybe Nagin never had the authority from her to order a, as per the plan, a full pre Katrina evacuation of NO?? If so, he should go into full CMA mode and yell it from the roof tops.
Would be a hoot to see full blown bloody dem partisan warfare.

A box of rocks is more intelligent than Blanko and yes, I misspelled her name on purpose.
