Ray Nagin
The man of a thousand excuses.
Mr. Mayor, did it every occur to you to designate drivers beforehand who would be obligated to stick around to do the job? Wouldn't that have been the prudent thing to do in advance as part of an emergency evacuation plan?
But I guess if the sun is shining, you can't get people to work in NO so why bother. (Landrieu said as much.)
Nagin should be arrested, immediately, for criminal homicide. There is so much aid the city turned down that I'm astounded whenever I hear a democrat try to blame anything on the administration.
Each driver has a bus, their family gets to ride, and they fill it up with people and take it (in this case) north and west. Red Cross had shelters, Texas obviously could help.
Part of working for the city maybe? Tax money for pay, but don't expect them to actually work for the public, I mean c'mon.
Refused Amtrak offer!
Refused to use school buses to evacuate!
Refused to allow FEMA buses to evacuate!
Refused to allow Red Cross in after the storm!
Did not protect its citizens in the Superdome
Did not allow supplies into the Superdome
Refused federal troops unless the swore allegence to the LA Natl. Guard
Oh yeah this is ALL Bush's fault!
(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)
This buffoon has no idea how to delegate. At least start passing out keys to anyone with a drivers license in their pocket!
And his grammer!!!! Sheesh!!!!!
Of course Nagin didn't offer bus or train rides out of the affected area. He had no shelter set up to which he could bus people. The Super Dome was the shelter for the worst case scenerio.
Until Texas came up with a plan, there was no where to send anyone.
What a sad excuse for a leader. What a poor imposter of a man he is.
Maybe the trains didn't have sleeper cars?
Admittedly the Mayor and Governor are idiots. But even a complete idiot wouldn't be so successful at consistently removing escape routes.
They were probably under orders from moonbat high-command to not allow anything to change the voter make-up of that city.
They must've elected him because they thought he'd look so fine on a Mardi Gras float.
Hmmm..but now I know why they call them "floats".
Blanco, Bush, FEMA, Greyhound, Amtrack............If Nagin keeps throwing everyone under the bus at this rate, they'll be out of snorkels by week's end.......
Nagin's lucky he's not a Japanese mayor.
BTTT
You know, that almost sounds like someone brought up the Amtrak reservations web page and said, "nope, trains all booked" so they blew off the option. The second worst thing would be if the NO people simply called the 1-800 number and spoke to a reservations clerk. Surely it wouldn't be that hokey, would it?
Here's how you get a Bus driver when a hurricane is bearing down on your city.
"Show up for work or you're FIRED!"
You know, it must be really difficult for a black Mayor to be so grossly stupid and incompetent that he makes Marion Barry look like Winston Churchill.
It's fortunate that Nagin's huge melon is so empty --- the space is needed to rehouse evacuees.
