I loved the excuse that Nagin gave for not using the busses:
1. “Those busses were not ready to be used”......
answer: Those busses were VERY ready to be used because school was to start the very next day (Monday) and they were gassed up & fresh batteries were installed, etc. All bus drivers had been hired & trained.
2. “There is no air conditioning on those busses. It would be wrong to ask people to ride on them without air conditioning.”
answer: There never has been ‘air conditioning’ on school busses.
IF those school busses are good enough to transport your kids and grandkids each & every year for 9 + months, they are certainly good enough to take people out of the path of the flooding disaster in a few hours.
If STUPID was an Olympic sport, New Orleans mayors & prior Louisiana Governors would hold most of the Gold Medals!!!!
I hope Nagin gets serious prison time.
That STUPID woman that was ogovernor reminds me of Clair McCaskill.....DUMB as a BAG of ROCKS.
